Vintage Le Creuset from 2009 5 US quart (4.7 litres) dutch oven, OVAL shape. A whole chicken will fit nicely in the pot. This pot including matching lid was made in France and is a very well known brand of cookware. It is great for on top of stove but cooks beautifully when placed in the oven. Because of the weight of the lid it keeps the steam inside and when used at a moderately low temperature in the oven will simmer tough cuts of meat gently until they fall away from the bone.
Great for stews, cabbage rolls, pot roast especially. 2 built in handles for carrying. The pot is red enameled cast iron with a matching re lid and a black phenolic knob.
The interior has some staining but that will in no way affect the performance of the pot. The pot and lid are clean and not chipped. It sits perfectly flat and the heavy lid sits nicely and securely on the pot. It is lightly used but look thoroughly at all of the photos to examine the condition, interior stains, paint scuffing on edge of lid. Colour is bright red with a darker red on the edge of the lid and own the middle half of the pot.Check out my other kitchen items for sale.
