Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Over 150 years of experience have made the potters at Emile Henry expert at producing tableware that is as lovely as it is useful. Ever since 1850, Emile Henry has been producing ceramics in the Burgundy region of France from a clay of superior quality that holds up amazingly well to a wide range of temperatures. In addition, the company has developed patented technological improvements to increase the durability and strength of its tableware and bakeware.

The Emile Henry 5-piece Provencal Lion's Head soup tureen set contains four 5- by 3-1/2-inch, 2-cup soup bowls and one 9-1/2- by 6-1/2-inch, 4-quart soup tureen; the tureen has a lid with a small cutout for a ladle handle. Because the bowls are safe for use under a broiler or in a microwave, they are perfectly suited for melting cheese on dishes like the classic French Onion Soup Gratinee. The tureen will keep hot soup from cooling off too quickly; and it looks great on the table. Emile Henry tableware is chip-resistant, sturdy, and lovely.

The beauty of Emile Henry's design is its simplicity; the tureen and bowls are solid-colored with Grecian-urn curves and little ornamentation besides the lion's heads. But the high-gloss glaze and rich, warm Provencal colors--pieces are available in Cerise Red, Citron Yellow, Azure Blue, and Vert Green--are anything but plain. Designed to evoke the sun-soaked palette of the South of France, these bowls can serve equally well in casual settings for everyday use or for more elegant tables on holidays and special occasions. Additional matching pieces in the Provencal style include various bowls, place settings, and serving pieces such as an oval platter, a pitcher, and covered butter dish. Emile Henry pieces are dishwasher-safe, so they're easy to clean. The company offers a three-year warranty against defects. --Garland Withers What's in the BoxSoup tureen set consists of: four 5-inch, 2-cup soup bowls and one 9-1/2-inch, 4-quart lidded soup tureen. 5 pieces total.

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.

3.0 out of 5 stars Aesthetically Flawed but Functional Set, October 16, 2006
I've always wanted an Emile Henry soup tureen, so was pleased to find this one on Amazon at such a reasonable price. Upon unpacking the large, well-packed box, I was disappointed to find a very large dent on the side of the tureen's lid -- a dent the width of a thumb and markedly deep. Although the Amazon product summary doesn't suggest that the items are "seconds" -- with reduced pricing because they are flawed in some way, I am thinking this must be the case. I'm still trying to decide whether I should return the set and purchase one elsewhere (where I'm able to assess the aesthetic quality of the item before dropping a nice chunk of change...).

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous Party!, September 3, 2007
I received these as a wedding gift and love them! I know I'll be using them for years to come for entertaining! The little lion's head on each bowl adds a decorative detail that is unusual and fun! Bright colors make a splash at the table too!

This soup tureen and bowls are the greatest. I use them a lot, and just throw them in the dishwasher. Great value.
