They are absolutely gorgeous, high quality and sure to delight the recipient.
According to Le Creuset,
Overall Assessment: You just can't go wrong with any of these beautiful picks for holiday entertaining and gift-giving.
The Heritage Square Baking Dishes, Set of 2 features two of our most popular and versatile sized dishes. The larger size is ideal for indulgent desserts, comforting casseroles, roasting vegetables, marinating meats, broiling fish and more. The smaller dish is perfect for breading and prep work, or casseroles and gratins for two. Both dishes are crafted from premium stoneware to ensure food is cooked to perfection, and feature a colorful glaze that is virtually nonstick for easy cleanup.
Features:
- Set includes one 5" dish (18 oz.) and one 8" dish (2 qt.)
- Premium stoneware ensures excellent heat distribution for uniform browning and even cooking with no hot spots.
- Superior heat retention keeps food warm or cold for serving.
- Colorful glaze is non-porous, non-reactive, scratch-resistant, and resists stains and flavor absorption.
- Virtually nonstick interiors easily release food for quick clean-up, and resist cracking and crazing.
- Unmatched thermal resistance for temperatures ranging from -9°F to 500°F.
- Safe for freezer, oven, microwave, broiler, dishwasher and metal utensils.
French Kitchen Marble Fruit Bowl ($59.95 from Crate & Barrel): This has been on my want-list for a very long time, and each time I go to Crate & Barrel I look at it! It's really gorgeous, and it makes a lovely centerpiece.
According to Crate & Barrel,
A substantial bowl of cool white marble with unique grey veining rests atop a traditional pedestal for a grand presentation of fruits and decorative objects. Note that exposure to the acid of cut citrus fruits can stain marble. Because marble is a natural product, veining and coloring variations will occur; see additional images for examples.
Features:
- French Kitchen Marble Fruit Bowl. 10" dia. x 4.75"H
- White marble
- 106 oz.
- Avoid using with oils and citric fruits
- Hand wash
French Kitchen Marble 2-Tier Server ($69.95 from Crate & Barrel): I absolutely love this Marble 2-Tier Server, and have had one for many years now. It is perfect in the kitchen, but I use mine in the bathroom to store some of my skincare products.
According to Crate & Barrel,
Tiered server upgrades in Ana Reza-Hadden's beautiful, classic design that mixes rectangular marble serving surfaces with a clean iron frame. Because marble is a natural product, veining and coloring variations will occur; see additional images for examples.
Features:
- French Kitchen Marble 2-Tier Server. 7"Wx14.25"Dx10"H
- Designed by Ana Reza-Hadden
- Marble
- Iron tube with clear lacquer finish
- Food safe

Ona Large Pitcher ($24.95 from Crate & Barrel): I absolutely love this pitcher, and I use it all of the time. It's perfect for any drinks, but I most often use it for lemon water, ice tea and lemonade. It is perfect for a holiday table, and is a wonderful gift for anyone who loves to entertain.
According to Crate & Barrel,
Ona's signature off-center handle makes it the center of attention. Handmade in crystal-clear glass with a thick, cut and polished rim. A beautiful presence when filled or simply on display.
Features:
- Ona Large Pitcher. 6"Wx4"Dx12"H

I love sleek kitchen/entertaining items like the ones you are featuring. The long slim shape of the two tier server is so smart as well as sophisticated. I have that large glass pitcher too, but I haven't used it yet. I will have to try lemon water in it!
ReplyDeleteMe too, Allison! The two-tier server sits on top of my toilet tank, and I stop lots of skincare items on it. It is a fantastic addition to my bathroom, and it gives me so much added storage space! I am so happy to hear that you have that glass pitcher! I have had mine for more than a decade, and I absolutely love it. Try it for lemon water, it is delightful to view during meals and it will get plenty of use!

DeleteI don't own a pitcher I love so this would be great for me. After 42 years of marriage I've got a ton of kitchen goods but for some reason I don't have a great pitcher like this.
ReplyDeleteHi Marcia, I HIGHLY recommend this pitcher. I have lots of pitchers, but this is by far my favorite one! I have had it for many, many years and it still delights me each time that I use it!
