The department store has seen sales of Le Creuset soar since lockdown. The brand is widely recognised for its premium quality ranges of enamelled cast iron, non-stick cookware, as well an impressive range of wine accessories. Their chic cookware comes in a range of bright retro colours, with the tangerine orange ‘Volcanic’ shade the company’s trademark. Specifically, John Lewis has seen sales of the Le Creuset signature skillet soar by an enormous 238 per cent compared to last year.
