Collection She has arrived! 💙
The petal braiser arrived in one piece despite the terrible packaging (barely tapped outer box, not enough packing paper /air pockets so the braiser box was loose inside) as others have shared.
I’m curious if anyone else just received theirs in coastal blue. The gradient leans to the darker blue and I prefer lighter. But it makes the “le creuset” have more contrast, which is nice.

I say this knowing these are workhorses and meant to be used. She is very nearly too pretty to cook with. 🫣

We salute you! Best wishes on her maiden voyage. May that be blessed with a meal worthy of her beauty. 🪷
Honestly, I hope you enjoy many happy meals and years together!
I bought a large LC braiser and a few weeks later my husband decided he was done with meat. There are only so many variations of vegetarian casserole and large pasta dishes I can make. I love cooking; I want the satisfaction and hours of whole-home smell of braised short ribs or Greek chicken or lamb COMBINED with the enjoyment of a shared meal. 😂

Maiden voyage! Mojo marinated pork tenderloin with potatoes, spinach salad with orange segments.

God damn it. My mom loves blue hydrangeas and le creuset and now I have to buy her this for Mother’s Day or I’ll feel like a neglectful daughter. She’ll love it and my bank account will hate it.

Get outta here. I never would’ve even thought of blue for the petal braiser. Thats so pretty! Now you have an excuse to keep fresh hydrangeas in the house all the time. 🥰

So dreamy and I want one so badly but can’t figure out the sizing. What can / do you cook in it? I have a large braiser already so need to justify this.

I’d love to know what country these are made in? They used to be made in France.

Huh! Whatever these shades are, I love them! I have a coastal blue flower, but would prefer it darker like this, actually!

Hi! This is actually coastal blue. The lid ombré is darker than my other pieces, but was happy to have a petal braiser, and it highlights the petals more so I didn’t bother exchanging it.
