<p>An embossed dragon encircles the lid of our Staub braiser, giving it a celebratory east-meets-west aesthetic, ideal for oven-to-table presentation. Its innovative enamel finish takes cast-iron cooking to the next level with improved performance, style and durability, and never needs seasoning. The domed Chistera lid features self-basting spikes that collect and return moisture, so food turns out tender and juicy. The interior's rounded sides facilitate stirring and prevent sticking, and the wide handles ensure a secure grip, even with oven mitts. Use this heavy-duty braiser to make everything from stews to casseroles to roasted chicken.</p> <ul> <li>Perfect for celebrating Year of the Dragon.</li> <li>Heavyweight enameled cast iron transfers and retains heat evenly.</li> <li>Specially formulated black matte interior enamel contains traces of quartz, giving it additional heat-retention and rougher surface for superior browning.</li> <li>Interior resists rust, chips and cracks and does not require seasoning.</li> <li>Integrated handles make it easy to carry – even with oven mitts.</li> <li>Domed Chistera lid with brass knob promotes continual self-basting for tender, flavorful results.</li> <li>Glossy multicoat enameling replicates majolica finish of fine ceramics.</li> <li>Ideal for use on all cooktops, including induction.</li> <li>Oven and broiler safe to 500°F.</li> <li>A Williams Sonoma exclusive.</li> </ul>
