I went to MIU France website and it is based in China and uses stainless steel imported from Japan. Other than the name, I could not find anything that referenced France. From their website: Brief History of our Company Company established in 1978 in Hong Kong First 18 years, only plastic production Moved production plant to Dong Guan, China in 1988 Increased our worldwide exposure by participating in tradeshows Built new factory in ZhongTang, China in 1991 Expanded production of stainless steel products in 1996 Expanded production of silicone products in 1999 Expanded production of wood and bamboo products in 2002

IT IS MADE IN CHINA. The name of the company is MIU France: that's the reason "France" is imprinted on the utensil. Note that it does not state "Made in France"

Wow! I never knew that fingers pointed to that possibility! I just now had to look at it for any logos/stamps on it, and evidently, it does! Just above the handle is engraved: MIU. And underneath the U, it says France. I would have never known! ha!

Mine was made in Switzerland... but it looks different than the one in the photo. Not sure if it's the same model you are asking about.

Christine, I bought that skillet for my daughter so I don't know if it says made in France on it. I have one myself that does say made in France. The one I bought for my daughter looks just like mine and was packed just like all the other Le Cruset products I have ever purchased. It's late at night now but if you like I can check with my daughter to see what her skillet says on the bottom. I know she loves hers. I bought her's from Amazon because they had the color she wanted, best price and I have Amazon Prime. I'm not sure if I have been helpful.

I just checked the packaging and did not see anything about where it was made.

I don't know about the particular item but some portion of Le Crueset's cookware is produced in Thailand rather than in France.

I did not save the box and it is not imprinted on the griddle. However, all my other Le Creuset pans are clearly stamped made in France. Not sure if that means this is made in France or not. I know it never had the small gold sticker saying China on it.

Hi, I am not sure. I looked to buy the ones made in Germany, so probably it was but I am not positive. Sorry.

It's says they're made it France. They look great but my only disappointment is that they feel quite light, so not sure wether they really are the real deal. But saying that they do look great quality. Hope this helps

it has "MIU France" imprinted on the back. But those specifically say "Made in..."

It's made by a French company to their strict environmental standards... perhaps not in France. Very few things are made in France these days.

The bottle I purchased says, "Made in France" on the side of it. So, yes I believe it is authentic. I hope that helps.

It's my understanding that these are designed in France but manufactured in China.
