With its iconic, French-inspired design and an enameled cast iron build that says, Julia Child in training, it’s no wonder that Le Creuset is the go-to for chic, ceramic cookware. As if its heirloom-quality materials weren’t enough, the brand also features an unrivaled selection of bold finishes in just about every hue you can imagine. Which brings us to its latest, retro introduction that’s totally in line with this year’s color trends: olive green.

ICYMI, green shades have been popping up everywhere in design—from olive kitchen cabinets and emerald velvet sofas to moss green duster jackets and forest-hued handbags. So it makes perfect sense why Le Creuset would develop a glowing olive shade inspired by yellow sun-drenched orchards and evergreen treetops. It takes its cues from nature—and brings a sense of tranquility, healing and renewal— while hitting this year’s green frenzy.

And as it turns out, Le Creuset isn’t the only cookware brand that’s hopping on this trend. Our Place’s cult-favorite Always Pan just released a new limited edition acid green color that’ll be sure to make a statement. Nevertheless, we’re captivated by Le Creuset’s vibrant olive tone (and the way it’ll look on our alfresco tablescape). So see below for three of the best items from this collection to shop now.
