Le Creuset x Star Trek Collection: Prices, availability, release date

Le Creuset has released a limited-edition Star Trek collection to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the iconic space series. The collaboration between Le Creuset and Paramount was initiated for the landmark birthday and includes various kitchen items inspired by the beloved show.

The collection features a 15 cm Communi-grator oven mitt priced at $68, a $500 Enterprise round casserole pot adorned with a Starfleet insignia knob, and a $450 Klingon shallow casserole dish with a trefoil Heart of Virtue knob. Each piece has a unique tagline, such as "to boldly go" for the Enterprise pot and "Qapla!" ("success" in Klingon) for the Klingon dish.

Additional items in the collection include a $35 Spock ear mug, a $55 Spock hand spoon rest, and a $40 Vulcan salute "live long and prosper" oven mitt. These pieces cater to fans of the series, and even include themed figurines.

To commemorate the release, Le Creuset also sent its Enterprise casserole dish to the edge of space via a balloon, reaching heights of over 111,000 feet and enduring extreme temperatures. The dish safely returned to Earth in Lincolnshire, England, after a flight lasting 1 hour, 19 minutes, and 4 seconds.
