Cocottes are versatile cooking pots that can be used on the hob or in the oven. Use them to make one-pot meals like stews, soups and casseroles. You can also use cocottes to make rice dishes like biryani and pilaf.
Oven-safe cocottes are ideal for keeping food warm while you finish other tasks. You can also use them to reheat leftovers the following day.

About La Chamba
La Chamba is traditional black pottery from South America. It’s produced in Tolima using techniques passed down through generations. The clay used to make Chamba pottery is only found in this area of central Colombia.
The pots are dried outside, then fired in small ovens. Finally, they are smoked to give them a matte black finish. Today, La Chamba pottery has a mix of Spanish and indigenous influences. Crafted by hand, each pot is a unique addition to your cookware collection.
