this from Mark by email. General Housewares Corp. sold-off patents/Descoware casgints in mid-to-late 1970 s to Le Creuset. Le Creuset used a few of the casgints for a brief period and imparted their own proprietary colorations/turquoise. So what we have here is a descoware casted piece colored by Le Creuset. You will not find turquoise enameled pieces predeeding the period of Le Creuset ownership. Le Creuset, during period of same, also imparted proprietary turquoise coloration to some of their own pieces, which can be seen with the phenolic lid handle'. I have found at least one other turquoise casting of a former Descoware piece under the Le Creuset label/vintage. Again these casgints were produced within just a few short years of each other, with the Descoware pieces preceding the Le Creuset pieces. If you provide your address, I will send E-bay pictures from preceding paragraph, if interested. Descoware differentiates itself from Le Creuset in a number of ways. For starters, the pieces are lighter weight and more refined. Their enameling process, over the years has proven itself more durable/chip resistant, and I find their designs/shape even more contemporary.
