This blue oval cast iron pot has excellent heat conductivity, making it perfect for stews and braises. - Brand: LE CREUSET - Color: Blue - Material: Cast iron - Shape: Oval - Size: 33cm including handles (25cm inside) x 20cm The beautiful shades of blue are eye-catching, and I purchased it at an American outlet. There are some areas where the blue color is missing from the time of manufacture (see photos). There are no chips or rough spots that have occurred after purchase. I used it once, but the inside is almost unused. It's great for keeping food warm at home parties, and I recommend it for its appearance and functionality. Please understand that this item has been stored at home before purchasing.
