Embrace the spirit of transformation during the Year of the Snake with our new Lunar New Year French Oven, a limited-edition cast iron pot that celebrates the snake, a symbol of renewal, rebirth and new beginnings. Drawing inspiration from the rich symbolism of serpents across cultures, this exquisite French oven honors the continuous cycle of personal transformation, like a snake sheds its skin to reveal a rejuvenated version of itself.

From easy and time-saving one-pot meals to braising or roasting your-pick-of proteins for juicy and tender meat, you’ll enjoy endless possibilities—and endless meals!—with this practical, yet oh-so sophisticated cast iron pan. With its high, sloped sides, this pot allows you to reach every corner, making it easy to mix and stir soups and stews more efficiently. The deep, versatile shape is perfect for stir-frying, braising, and deep-frying your favorite dishes.

Our STAUB enameled cast iron requires no seasoning and possesses exceptional heat-retaining qualities. It heats evenly throughout, ensures exceptional browning, heat retention and distribution.
