A familiar silhouette

Two centuries, one pot

Heritage, refined

Weeknight cooking asks for steadiness—no hot spots, no guessing. The CRISTEL 1826 Stewpot’s three-layer, heat‑diffusing base encourages even warmth from edge to edge, while its stainless body keeps dinner ready at serving. Ergonomic, riveted handles stay cool to the touch for a sure, careful carry. The rounded glass lid holds in moisture and lets you keep an eye on what matters.

Calm, even cooking

Meals come together when tools don’t get in the way. This stewpot moves from a slow Sunday stock to a fast Tuesday braise with the same measured control, on induction or any other hob. The borosilicate lid is at home in a hot oven, so covered roasting stays simple. Four thoughtful sizes mean there’s always a pot that suits the moment.

For the home that cooks

Someone who values heritage cookware with even heat, secure handling, and a clear view through a rounded glass lid.

In daily rotation

Choose the capacity you need, set it on any cooktop, and simmer, braise, or roast under the glass lid until the kitchen smells like dinner.
