La Cornue Kitchen Appliances
Luxury French Ranges & Hoods
La Cornue is more than just a range of convection kitchen ovens. To own a La Cornue is to own a piece of French culture. La Cornue has maintained this renowned piece of French cuisine for more than a century.
Every range is handcrafted, and each craftsman engraves a unique number after its conception. More than just an oven, La Cornue is excellent at every turn.
When Albert Dupuy first created the convection oven in 1908, the alternatives were brutish. Ovens were flat-topped craters with a naked flame beneath its racks. Dupuy's vaulted ceilings guided heat around the food rather than trap it below. Now Dupuy's craftsmanship can bring warmth to every home. With ranges available in more than 40 countries, La Cornue has not lost its flame. Only 60 employees still handcraft every oven.
On such a scale, every worker must be a craftsman. And a designer. Every La Cornue is a kitchen's trophy. Each, a pièce de résistance. While the pursuit of perfection is not cheap, it yields the highest quality. If you, like us, value French history and the finest craftsmanship - a La Cornue may be your finishing touch.

La Cornue Magic
La Cornue is a celebration of home decor, art and the science of cuisine. Fantastic cuisine is no accident. To inspire memories and moments is a balance of precision and creativity.Unique and memorable dishes deserve like-minded tools. La Cornue ranges are crafted to bring the best out of your ingredients - and your kitchen. Just as a chef makes finer cuts with a sharp edge, you will make finer tastes with a La Cornue.
To understand history, you must piece together important moments in time. To understand a La Cornue, you must piece together its components. Each component is an essential step closer to culinary perfection.
The RCC Gas Oven
La Cornue ovens are fitted with electric multi-function convection ovens or its older brother - the gas oven. RCC stands for radiation, convection, and conduction. To bring the best from your dishes, La Cornue ovens come uniquely equipped. The RCC disk is a combination of an enameled cast-iron disc and a circular burner. The result is one oven with three weapons of heat.Radiation cooks the food using reflected heat from the oven's internal walls. Conduction cooking is a direct simmer on the disc itself. And in La Cornue tradition, convection-style cooking circulates air around the dish.
In the style of La Cornue, we added something unique. A patented technique known as mivoûtage produces exceptional tenderness and flavor.
The Electric Multifunction Convection Oven
The gas oven is not the only one to benefit from new technology. The G4 Electric Oven now boasts different cooking modes for pastry dishes. Temperature responses are faster. Cooking performance is better. La Cornue holds its own with modern ovens while preserving a unique origin. Besides the conventional oven, fan-assisted cooking, convection, and defrosting - La Cornue has a unique touch.Bottom heat is ideal to finish baked dishes such as dense cakes and bread. Using bottom heat for the last 10 minutes of cooking ensures the dish is cooked through without browning its edges. If browning is your goal, La Cornue covers that too. The electric browning element is your finishing touch. Intense heat can ruin a perfect dish, but the browning element can gently achieve the right result.
Convection broiling gives your food a fabulous searing without drying out the food with direct heat. Convection broiling also minimizes splatter inside the oven. All La Cornue ovens are, of course, vaulted in the style of Albert Dupuy
Power Burners
On top of a La Cornue sits several options. Power burners come oversized and in pairs. Oversized power burners are ideal for large saucepans, sautéing, high heat cooking, and searing. All power burners are set into an enameled drip tray and covered by a cast iron grate.The French Top
The French top consists of a single gas burner set beneath a solid cast iron top. Offering variable heating zones, multiple saucepans can cook using indirect heat sources.It's electric cousin, the Teppanyaki, is a griddle-style flat electric-heated surface. The Teppanyaki is best deployed against tough steaks, seafood, vegetables, eggs, and rice. If consistency is essential, this option - is a necessity.
Grilling and Inducting
Lastly, the lava-rock grill is a gas burner set underneath natural lava rocks—your very own stove-top natural open grill. The grill simulates an open fire roast, great for meat and fish.Ceramic induction panels are also possible, going up to 3700 watts.
The La Cornue Range

One-Of-A-Kind
Besides the intricately beautiful La Cornue finish, the Cornufé ovens have a unique splash of color. Each Cornufé oven has the option of 4 colors by Suzanna Kasler. Kasler was inspired by the muted, faded European colors that are "subtle enough that you never get tired of them. Classic, not trendy." These colors can drive color selection in a home.Colour is personality. Give your kitchen and home a strong but classy personality with a Cornufé oven. Color palettes like Liberté and Basilica are subtle yet warm. Should the size of the Château series entice you, Kasler designed a specific set of colors for you too.

As each La Cornue is a unique piece of craftsmanship, every La Cornue kitchen is a statement of a home's warmth. Suppose you prefer a subtler tone. Perhaps, an oven that does not hide but does not immediately present itself either. Then La Cornue ovens also come with higher contrast colors like Brilliant Black and Dark Navy Blue.
The Château Series
