LE CREUSET ~ Early Model Enameled Cast Iron Oval DUTCH OVEN ROASTER (8 Qt, Fr.Country Blue) ~ FranceDescription of item...Here we have a beautiful early model French country blue enameled cast iron large oval FRENCH DUTCH OVEN ROASTER (#33) by LE CREUSET of France. It measures approx. 13 1/4" long (add 1 3/8" for each end side handle grip) x 10 1/2" wide x 5 1/8" side high (deep) x 7 1/4" in total height with the lid, can hold up to 8 quarts. It is in very good maintained (lightly used...) condition with no chips, cracks or crazing, no enamel loss...appearing to have had less than normal use currently showing a few very minor exterior bottom scuff/rub marks here and there from handling and/or movement...all of which are not offensive. The exterior blue is complimented with a beige or tan enamel interior which is clean as a whistle also with no enamel loss. The lids underside is marked "33 ~ 7.5 l ~ FRANCE ~ 8 US Qt" and the enameled bottom pot is marked, "LE CREUSET ~ 33 ~ FRANCE". This heavy duty French Dutch Oven Roaster (large Casserole/Cocotte) heats evenly, retains the heat, and with consistent care it will last a lifetime. Came from a well cared for private home collection of many years, however the exact age is unknown. This item weighs approx. 14 1/4 lbs., add 4 3/4 lbs. or so for the packing box and packing material (box will be large.)Payment and shipping...NOTE: I will be revising, adding and/or changing my SHIPPING INFORMATION as eBay and the Post Office revise or change their information to better serve you. I will use USPS FLAT RATE boxes when I find it cheaper to use than regular USPS Priority Mail boxes or other generic boxes. INTERNATIONAL WINNERS - Please wait for the Invoice to be sent to you by me, and I will use USPS International Rates (AIR only, no more SURFACE shipping by USPS - discontinued.) I will be using UPS for shipping heavier items (usually over 5 lbs., cheaper than USPS rates - or larger boxes over 12" long/36" in total circumference - to US only.) My short and simple auction "philosophy"...To ALL: THANK YOU for looking, and if time permits, check out my other auctions for more interesting, unusual and unique items. I will pack the item to withstand just about anything it might encounter on its way to you, ship quickly and am always glad to combine items for you. If you have any questions, just ask.
