I assume the answer is no, this pan is not a Le Creuset pan but an imitation. However it did have a few good things going for it as it was free, felt pretty sturdy and was in good shape. It was in a box on the side of the road so DH and I picked it up on the way home. Actually the truth is we saw it in a box on the way out of our apartment and DH suggested I try to get it into my purse. Its not huge, but it is a frying pan made from cast iron and we were on our way out to dinner and I didn't want to look like I was bringing my own cookware to a restaurant so I politely declined his suggestion. We agreed if it was still there on the way home we would pick it up. Lucky for us other people don't seem to want to cook their breakfast in things found on the street.

Awesome! Ok, I'll guess we'll have to go thrifting AND poke in boxes on the street
Alicia, I'm amazed! I never would have thought to look for so many useful things on the side of the road.
It totally cracks me up that Dan did not think it was a completely ridiculous request to have you carry a cast iron skillet in your purse to dinner. I laughed out loud at this post.
Nick, you need to know that this is a small frying pan, big enough to fry maybe 2 eggs, and it was more than reasonable to expect that she would put it in her purse. Of course, it does weigh something like 2 pounds.
