Sarpaneva Cast Iron Pot
You know you've got a great design on your hands when it makes it onto a postage stamp. Sure, it was in Finland, but that doesn't take away from the great looks of the Sarpaneva Cast Iron Pot ($295). Designed by Timo Sarpaneva in 1960, this usable piece of art offers a three quart capacity, a beechwood handle, and oven-to-table functionality that's safe for use on gas, electric, gas electric, and induction ranges, as well as over an open fire — where it looks its best.
