At Leekes, we’re proud to celebrate a century of craftsmanship, innovation, and style from one of the most iconic names in cookware — Le Creuset. Founded in 1925 in northern France, Le Creuset quickly became known for its colourful cast iron cookware and commitment to quality. For 100 years, the brand has been synonymous with performance and timeless design, and we’re delighted to continue sharing their legacy with you through our wide range of their most-loved products. Let’s explore their incredible range to celebrate 100 years of Le Creuset.
When you think of Le Creuset, the image that often comes to mind is their iconic cast iron casserole dish—and for good reason. Introduced in the brand’s earliest days, this timeless piece has become a symbol of quality and tradition in kitchens around the world. Beloved by home cooks and professional chefs alike, it offers superior heat distribution, excellent moisture retention, and a vibrant enamel finish that adds a splash of colour to any cooking space. Whether you’re slow-cooking stews, baking bread, or serving straight from oven to table, it’s as functional as it is beautiful. Available in a wide variety of sizes and colours, Le Creuset’s cast iron range is made to last a lifetime—and to be passed down through generations. Shop the cast iron collection here.
Beyond cast iron, Le Creuset’s stoneware range brings everyday charm and dependable utility to your kitchen and table. Designed for both beauty and practicality, the collection includes everything from mugs perfect for your morning brew to salt & pepper mills, oven dishes, canisters, egg cups, and more. Each piece is crafted with durable stoneware that resists chipping, cracking, and staining—making it ideal for everyday use. Whether you’re baking, storing, or serving, these items are as functional as they are stylish. Finished in Le Creuset’s signature colours and a high-gloss glaze, they make oven-to-table presentation effortless and elegant. Explore stoneware essentials here.
While Le Creuset is best known for its colourful heritage pieces, it also excels in performance-focused modern cookware. The 3-Ply Stainless Steel range delivers professional results thanks to its multi-layer construction, which ensures fast and even heating. It’s perfect for those who value speed, precision, and control in the kitchen. The Toughened Non-Stick collection is just as impressive, with a durable, scratch-resistant coating and effortless food release. From omelettes to stir-fries, it makes everyday cooking quick and easy. These sleek, contemporary designs may not have the bold colours of cast iron, but the quality is the same. They’re built to last and perform, just like every piece that carries the Le Creuset name. Browse the Toughened Non-Stick here or the 3-Ply Stainless Steel range here.
