VTG LE CREUSET Rare 7-Qt DUTCH OVEN 26 Round Covered TRADITION Minty CERISE RED For Sale

Here we have a very large vintage set of Le Creuset enameled cast iron stove and oven wear. It is a 7-Quart Dutch Oven from Le Creuset's Tradition line, the one that existed before the current Signature line, so its vintage but not really that old. The main difference between the two lines is the knob (black vs. stainless steel, with both being oven-safe) and the size of the handles. 26 cm. Cerise (ombre red.) Listing includes screenshots with information from the Le Creuset site. The current equivalent Dutch Oven on the Le Creuset site that is closest in size to this one (it is 7.25 Qts, versus this one's 7.0 Qts) retails for a whopping $500.
We have an enormous estate collection shown in the group photos -- see instructions below for combining shipping on these pieces, most of which were never actually used, but are display-only, and were displayed in the dining area, not even the kitchen, of a professionally-kept home. They are stunning and minty!

We have lots of vintage, antique and contemporary collectible kitchenware in our store, to which we add new inventory daily, and we're always happy to combine shipping at actual cost when it makes sense to do so.(It is often more economical to ship two smaller boxes than one larger one, for instance.) When purchasing multiple items, please choose "ADD TO CART" instead of "buy now" and check-out from the cart when you are completely done shopping with us. If the checkout fails to properly combine your orders or, as it is very apt to do, overcharges you for combined shipping, we will issue a refund for the difference between what you paid for shipping, and the actual cost of the shipping, on the day that we ship your package. (We don't find out the actual cost of combined shipping until we purchase the shipping label.)
Condition:Our photographs reveal the condition best -- please enlarge and zoom in on them, and examine them carefully.Very clean and fresh piece with no cracks, crazing, silver/gray utensil marks, any other type of marks, stains. If it was ever actually used for cooking, it was gently so, as the interior is mint. Only the exterior has any issue, and it is entirely cosmetic, with numerous scratches and rubs along the outer edge of the lid from its having been improperly stored upside down on top of the pot with no protective padding between them -- see photos. There are also a few very light scattered scratches to the bottom of the pot that can't be seen unless it is turned upside down.
We consider funky odors (cigarette smoke, mildew, etc) to be an important part of a condition report. Corndogcache is a 100% non-smoking environment, and we'll let you know if any of our vintage items smell like it (or anything else) from activities they may have been involved in before they came to us.
