Product Description

Marcigny, a small town nestling between the hills of Southern Burgundy, has been home to Emile Henry for the past 150 years. Faithful to its origins, the entire production is carried out here. Thanks to its clay, rich in refractory properties, Burgundy has remained a fertile area for potters, passing on their savoir-faire from generation to generation. Clay, a natural and noble material, has been used since the mists of the time to cook or preserve food. While respecting the traditional techniques, Emile Henry has introduced technological improvements (Ceradon ®) so that the dishes are more resistant to mechanical and thermal shock. Strong, durable, all Emile Henry pieces can be taken directly from the freezer to the hot oven, can go under a broiler and is microwave, freezer and dishwasher safe. The natural clay is unsurpassed for conducting and retaining heat. All pieces are perfect for everyday use and carry a 3 year warranty against defects.

This bowl set is pretty and practical. The individual bowls are a good size and we've been using them for everything from chili and soup to ice cream. They feel substantial in the hand and hold the temperature of whatever food you're eating. The large bowl is truly large. I haven't actually measured the capacity, but it handles salad, rising bread dough, meatloaf mixture for a big family and of course pasta. I'm pleased with this purchase and will purchase it in the green if it goes on sale.

I ordered this set, thinking I would be getting the individual pasta bowls and a 1 quart Pasta bowl. As Amazon sells the individual pasta bowls and a 1 quart pasta bowl seperately. Although the description gives the size of the bowls it doesn't tell you the capacity. The individual bowls will hold 2 cups of food with room to spare. This a great set, the Large Pasta Bowl, is not 1 qt, but a whopping 3 quarts. Like I said thats a lot of pasta. This is a great quality set, the bowls are sturdy and have a high quality glaze, you just need to pick your color. I got the yellow, but enjoy all the colors.

6/26/08 Update, the large bowl, is what Amazon is selling as the 4 qt bowl. Which I had ordered seperately thinking I would be getting a different size bowl.
