Le Creuset’s new collection incorporates traditional Japanese culture into modern design

Le Creuset’s “New Tradition” series offers tableware that incorporates traditional Japanese culture into an easy-to-use modern design. The line-up includes enamel pots, small bowls and chopstick rest sets that are perfect for the year-end and New Year holidays.

Cast iron enamel pot with “hemp leaf” pattern

Le Creuset’s popular item, the cast iron enamel pot, is designed with a Japanese pattern of good luck.  

In addition, the lineup includes mini dishes and chopstick rest sets with motifs of lucky items such as sea bream and Mt. Fuji.

Three types of new stoneware are lined up from the Octagon series. In Feng Shui, the octagon is said to be a shape that “brings happiness from all directions”, and in Japan, it has been popular as an auspicious shape that brings good luck.
