Le Creuset #40 Cast Iron Roasting Pan — Flame Orange, Wire Handles, France

A Le Creuset #40 enameled cast iron rectangular roasting pan in Flame orange, bearing the embossed "Le Creuset Made in France" stamp on the enameled base. The #40 designation — Le Creuset's 40cm long-dimension classification — identifies this as the standard large roasting size, suited for whole roasted chicken, lasagna, casseroles, and braised dishes. The pan features straight, deep sidewalls with rounded corners, a cream-white interior enamel, and a pair of swinging wire bail D-ring handles set through cast iron lugs on the short ends — the earlier vintage handle style consistent with 1970s–1980s production, replaced in later manufacture by the integrated cast iron loop handles of the current Signature series. Sits flat.

CONDITION

Good. Signs of use visible throughout; the exterior Flame enamel retains strong color across the body with accumulated cooking residue along the rim edge. Interior cream enamel shows dark staining and carbon buildup in the corners and along the interior rim, with gray discoloration across portions of the floor — consistent with regular oven use and responsive to cleaning.
