Where is Le Creuset made?

Another thread implies it may not still be coming from France. I bought my first piece this last year and I love it. (But will not be buying more if it has been farmed out)

I think it depends on the piece. Some say made in France some made in China and Thailand. Most stores will show the country of origin on their website. I have purchased the Emile Henry bakeware which is made in France and I love it. Good luck.

For that price it better still be made in France. I'll google it.

Japan has a very high income and they outsource their manufacturing just like everyone else. Actually the Chinese have been in that business for so long, they are probably better than the original manufacturers.
