Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Keep kitchen tools and accessories neatly stored and within easy reach with the help of this charming utensil crock by Le Creuset. Measuring approximately 4-3/4 by 4-3/4 by 6 inches, the round-shaped crock sits sturdily on the countertop, providing a deeper 2-3/4-quart capacity to accommodate utensils with longer handles--from spatulas and whisks to wooden spoons and ladles. Even more, the crock displays an attractive glaze and a flared top where concentric raised rings draw attention to its brand name in raised capital letters.
As part of Le Creuset's line of stoneware, the piece features a hard-wearing, impermeable finish fired at temperatures as high as 2192 degrees F. With a porosity level of less than 1 percent, it blocks moisture absorption, which can lead to cracking, crazing, and rippling along the interior. The unit's high-quality enamel exterior protects against metal marks and other damage, plus it makes it fun to mix and match with other coordinating Le Creuset pieces (sold separately). And thanks to its unmatched thermal resistance from -65 degrees F to 500 degrees F, Le Creuset stoneware moves gracefully from the microwave or oven (or under the broiler) to the table for serving to the refrigerator or freezer for storing leftovers to the dishwasher for quick cleanup.
Product Description
Perfect for kitchens with limited drawer space, this large utensil crock holds handfuls of whisks, spatulas, and spoons. At 6 inches high and 6-3/4 inches across, it's a handy size to keep near the stove yet spacious enough to double as a cookie jar. The crock is made of heavy stoneware, which keeps it from tipping over when loaded. Le Creuset's colorful porcelain enamel finish on the crock resists scratching, chipping, staining, and cracking, and gradates from a darker hue at the bottom to a lighter hue at the top. Like all Le Creuset ware, the crock is dishwasher-safe. --Ann Bieri

Not as tall as it appears in Amazon photo,

This review is from: Le Creuset Stoneware Large 2-3/4-Quart Utensil Crock, Black Onyx (Kitchen)
This Large Utensil Crock in Black Onyx looks in the photo like it will be taller than it is wide. Unfortunately, this is not the case. The crock, although beautiful, is too short. It is plenty wide, to hold many utensils. But it is so short (6 inches) that some of my Le Creuset utensils lay more at a sideways angle than upright, because the sides of the crock should be taller, like they are in the photo.
The photo is misleading. Amazon or Le Creuset should replace it with a photo of the actual item. Perhaps this is an older version of the item, but the proportions are clearly off. Also, I would have preferred it if the interior of the crock were also black. It is beige. The crock is beautifully made, but I may look at returning this and replacing it with one of the Le Creuset canisters, which could be used without the lid. The Black Onyx color is lovely and goes beautifully with my new Le Creuset Black Onyx utensils. They are mostly leaning against one side, as it would take a huge number of utensils to fill up this crock. To be more functional, the crock needs to be taller and less wide.

This review is from: Le Creuset Stoneware Large 2-3/4-Quart Utensil Crock, Black Onyx (Kitchen)
This utensil crock is just the right size to hold a whole slug of your kitchen utensils that are taking up too much drawer space. It is about six inches in diameter around the top, so it may be larger than many utensil holders. I find the size to be just right: holds a reasonable amount and isn't too bulky on the counter. The outside is black and glossy (the picture makes it look as if it may have a matte finish, but that is not the case), and the inside is a light beige or sand color. Normally it is hard to find the black Le Creuset as many of the black items are exclusive to Bloomingdales. The works for both tall and medium length utensils.

This review is from: Le Creuset Stoneware Large 2-3/4-Quart Utensil Crock, Black Onyx (Kitchen)
I'm sooo glad Amazon sent me a link to review this product!
It would have been wonderful if the crock shown and described was the item I received. When I selected this item it was placed in my shopping cart as a totally different crock. This is copied from my account: Items Ordered 1 of: Le Creuset Large Utensil Crock, Black Onyx [Kitchen] Condition: New Sold by: Amazon.com, LLC $26.90. I had no idea when I placed the order that I purchased the Large Utensil Crock and not the 2 3/4-quart that was pictured and described. When I received the wrong crock I went back into my account and saw that the Large Utensil crock was listed. I was totally baffled since I never even viewed this item - I clicked on the link and it brought up the picture and description of the 2 3/4-quart crock.....the item that I had intended on purchasing. Something within the Amazon network is totally screwed up. I did not return the crock because it was a Christmas present. There was not enough time to receive the correct item and in the end she was happy with the gift. I notified Amazon of the situation, but since no one acknowledged my email, or review of seller I have no idea if it was in fact "fixed". So, buyer beware when it comes to purchasing this crock from Amazon - you might not get the correct item.
