[http://www.lecreuset.com Le Creuset] was founded in 1925 in the town of Fresnoy-le-Grand in Northern France by two Belgian industrialists - Armand Desaegher (a casting specialist) and Octave Aubecq (an enameling specialist). The pair introduced the signature Le Creuset round cocotte (French/Dutch Oven) soon after; the cocotte remains the company's most popular cookware piece to this day. | [http://www.lecreuset.com Le Creuset] was founded in 1925 in the town of Fresnoy-le-Grand in Northern France by two Belgian industrialists - Armand Desaegher (a casting specialist) and Octave Aubecq (an enameling specialist).

===Le Creuset pans are not dishwasher safe=== | |||
I have a around 10 Le Creuset cast iron pots and pans and have always assumed them to be dishwasher safe (as it says on all of their documentation). Having now lost a saucepan and a very expensive 26cm frying pan to rust damage caused by dishwashing, I no longer wash them in a dishwasher. The handles fell off of both of them. ''The handle is attached to the pan using an iron rod that the handle is screwed on to. The iron rod rusts away and then the handle falls off.'' | |||
