If you’ve dreamed of owning a Le Creuset — who hasn’t? — and can’t bring yourself to fork over a small fortune for one of the brand’s iconic cast irons, you’re in luck: Nordstrom just slashed up to 40 percent off some of the most beloved pieces from the 96-year-old brand.

It’s not just dutch ovens on sale, either — you can score smaller goodies, like mills and spoons, for a markdown as well. What’s the big deal about Le Creuset enameled cast iron, you ask? For one, the pieces are gorgeous and come in a rainbow of colors — you just might be inspired to start a collection. Trust us: You’ll be proudly displaying these pieces, not hiding them away in the cabinet. Made in France, the gorgeous enameled cast iron resists stains, scratches and chips while producing gloriously even results.

Here are the best picks from the sale:

The ideal size for individual portions, this mini Dutch oven is the definition of small, but mighty: It can be used in the microwave or oven, plus the exterior enamel resists stains and scratches. Oh, it’s adorable, too.

Love casseroles? This rectangular dish can hold up to 31/4 quarts, plus it’s freezer, oven, and even dishwasher-safe. It looks just as stunning atop your stove as it does your dining room table, and it won’t crack, scratch, or stain.

The biggest markdown is also on the brand’s most famous design — the 3.5-Quart Sauteuse. It’s made of a gorgeous enameled cast iron that produces even results. The durable pot — which can be used for sauteing, roasting, baking, and so much more — is made to last decades, and can be passed down from one generation to the next. And the vibrant scarlet exterior (Cerise, to be exact) is so stunning, you’ll want to keep it out on your stovetop even when you’re not using it.
