Fantastic - Pictures Don't Do it Justice

What a beauty this is in person. Pictures just don't do it justice (and the stock image from Staub that everyone uses shows a casting flaw that wasn't in evidence in reality on the actual terrine I bought). Not only will I enjoy owning and using this for years to come, but I'll also enjoy displaying and looking at it. This design from Staub features a matte black finish with a quality brass knob-type handle on top of the lid that gives an Old World feel of quality, and that's reminiscent of another French beauty, the black and brass oven ranges from La Cornue (such as the CornueFe 110). This is an instant and timeless classic. Comes with a ribbon tied around the knob like the French flag (red, white, and blue), and a multi-language instruction book. It does not come with a press like the small terrines from Le Creuset in recent years (a rather new development), and though it would benefit from a press, historically they're made by having a piece of plywood cut to fit (using the lid as a pattern and then making it slightly smaller, or even cardboard, which you can wrap in tin foil and then weight down with canned goods). I liked this one so much I bought the half terrine in the same design (one should have a 2 1/2 to 3 cup terrine, a 4 cup terrine, and a 5 1/2 to 6 cup terrine (like this one) anyway to suit the various recipes out there. Can't wait to get going on my first terrine ...

Worth the money!!!

An elegant little piece...this is my second Staub, my first being the cocotte which is wonderful. I’m delighted with the taste and results .... there will be more Staub pieces in my future!!!!

Excellent product and the quality is there

Bought this to make sourdough french bread loaves. It bakes the bread to perfection. Excellent product and the quality is there.
