Le Creuset ceramic espresso cup

Le Creuset is a world-renowned French cookware manufacturer best known for its brightly colored porcelain-enameled cast iron cookers, but it also produces a wide range of stoneware and accessories such as this ceramic espresso cup. Founded in 1925 in Fresnoy-le-Grand, France, by casting specialist Armand Desaegher and enameler Octave Aubecq, the company has grown into a global kitchenware icon. While its traditional cast iron products are still manufactured in France, many of its stoneware items are expertly crafted in Thailand. Le Creuset is privately owned by the Rault family, maintaining its headquarters in France. In Romania, Le Creuset products are distributed through official specialty kitchenware retailers and high-end department stores.
