Just in time for summer, Le Creuset is bringing back Provence, a soft blue-violet colorway inspired by the lavender fields of Southern France, which is a very effective way to make a Dutch oven feel downright romantic.

Provence is now available across a wide range of Le Creuset pieces, including cast iron, stoneware and tabletop items. You can go big with a round Dutch oven or just sneak the color in with a mug, mini cocotte or pie vent.

This is the perfect shade to add a little bit of a summery hue to your kitchen, whether that's on the stovetop, the counter or the table. Here are our favorite Provence pieces that all look prettier in June sunlight.
Le Creuset Signature Round Dutch Oven
The Signature Round Dutch Oven is the centerpiece for a reason. In Provence, this 5.5-quart enameled-cast-iron version serves up to six people, works on every major cooktop, including induction, and has a tight-fitting lid that circulates steam and returns moisture to food.
Le Creuset Signature Oval Bread Oven
Le Creuset’s Signature Oval Bread Oven is perfect for weekend baking. The Provence version is shaped for longer loaves with a domed lid that traps steam to create crunchy crusts, plus a low-profile base with raised ridges for even browning.
Le Creuset Signature Round Deep Oven
The Signature Round Deep Oven adds extra height to the classic Dutch oven, so it can serve more people, contain splatters and reduce boil-overs without hogging extra stovetop space.
Le Creuset Heritage 3-Piece Rectangular Baking Dish
If you like your color in a full set, the Heritage 3-Piece Rectangular Baking Dish set is for you. It includes a 12.5-inch 4-quart dish, a 10-inch 2.5-quart dish and a 7.5-inch 1.1-quart dish, all made from premium stoneware in Provence.
The Mini Round Cocotte turns even humble side dishes into a main event. Mac and cheese, berry crumbles and individual chicken pot pies fit perfectly into this 8-ounce stoneware cocotte that works in the oven, broiler and microwave.
Le Creuset’s Vancouver Mug is a smaller way to bring the color home. It holds 14 fluid ounces, is made from high-fired stoneware, and is safe for the freezer, oven, microwave, broiler and dishwasher.
The Signature Skillet is a great way to display Provence on the stovetop. It's compatible with all cooktops, including induction, and oven-safe up to 500 degrees. It pairs enameled cast iron in the new color with a preseasoned black satin interior.
The Bunny Pie Vent is the cutest way to release steam from your pies as they bake. Arches on the bottom redirect excess moisture to help keep the bottom crust from getting soggy. It's made from stoneware and safe for the oven, microwave and dishwasher.
For everyday stovetop cooking, the Signature Saucepan is a workhorse for sauces and sides. It comes in two sizes with a rounded base that makes it easier to stir and clean.
