The Le Creuset L'OVEn is a limited-edition pride-themed French oven carefully constructed in the signature Le Creuset style. The oven-safe heavyweight cookware has a cast-iron foundation with a pure white enamel finish. In addition, the cooking product is dotted with rainbow hearts along the side and over the lid.
The sturdy construction offers the cookware piece extended durability well beyond that of a typical pot or pan. The 4.5 quart Le Creuset L'OVEn also packs unmatched heat retention and brings versatility to the kitchen through the sheer variety of recipes that can be cooked within it.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Le Creuset L'OVEn will go to The Trevor Project, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to crisis intervention for LGBTQIA+ individuals. The French oven was released in anticipation of Pride Month, which begins in June.
