Highly coveted kitchen brand, Le Creuset revealed the newest color in its cookware lineup last night. Le Creuset describes this hue as "a next-generation neutral," giving us a more muted color that still stands out stylishly in your space. What's this new color called? Meet "Shallot" in all it's partially purple-pink glory.

The beloved brand took to NYC's Lower East Side last night to show off the new Shallot-colored ceramics. Le Creuset notes that shallots are a key ingredient in French cuisine, leaning into the company's country of origin. The company says, "Smaller than most onion varieties, the shallot offers a more subtle, delicate and slightly sweet flavor," with its color lab specialist weighing in how difficult it is to highlight the delicacy of it all on such sturdy enamel.

According to the company, some see the French shallot (AKA the griselle) as the "truest" shallot, so it's only natural that the Franco-founded Le Creuset would adopt the classic grey-purple color. We're obsessed with this stylish shade, especially because it exudes Spring while still being neutral enough to add alongside plenty of other colors.
