Cast Iron Pan Christmas Ornament

Some people collect shoes. Other people collect expensive cast iron cookware.

This miniature orange casserole dish from Yup in de Boom is for the latter. Inspired by those beautiful French cooking pots that everyone wants on their hob, it's made from glass with a glossy orange-to-red finish, two little handles and a matching lid. Even the lid has tiny lettering around the top.

It's a particularly good one for the person who takes their Sunday roast seriously, makes an excellent slow-cooked stew or has spent an unreasonable amount of time deciding which colour casserole dish to buy next.

The fiery orange glass is rather lovely against the greenery of a Christmas tree, and the silver hanging cord gives it just enough sparkle without distracting from the design.

Presented in an orange and burgundy striped gift box, it's a brilliant Christmas present for keen cooks, kitchen enthusiasts and anyone who believes a really good casserole dish is a perfectly acceptable thing to get excited about.
