Product Description
Braise, simmer, roast, and bake in a compact size with the Smithey 3.5-Quart Cast Iron Dutch Oven. Well suited to small batches and meals for two to four, it pairs a smooth, polished interior with a fitted lid for covered cooking. Dual handles provide a balanced two-handed grip when moving the pot from stovetop to oven or table.
Based in Charleston, South Carolina, Smithey Ironware grew from founder Isaac Morton’s passion for restoring vintage cast iron. Inspired by the smooth, polished ironware produced in 19th-century America, Smithey pairs traditional craftsmanship with modern production techniques. This Dutch oven carries that heritage through a refined cooking surface and distinctive copper-toned preseasoned finish designed to look at home in both kitchen and dining room.
