About Lareina

Cast iron has been part of home cooking for generations. There's the loaf of sourdough you've spent hours making, the pot of stew left to simmer, and the recipes you've cooked so many times you know them by heart.

At Lareina, we bring together enamelled and pre-seasoned cast iron cookware for New Zealand homes. From bread ovens to Dutch ovens, we offer familiar favourites alongside more distinctive shapes and colours, all made for cooking and baking at home.

From Auckland to Your Kitchen

Lareina serves home cooks and bakers throughout New Zealand, with all orders dispatched from our Auckland warehouse.

We offer free delivery nationwide, including rural addresses. And if you're unsure about sizing, materials or caring for your cookware, we're always happy to help.

Our Materials

Enamelled Cast Iron
Solid cast iron finished with a layer of glass-based enamel. The surface doesn't need seasoning, is easy to care for and is suitable for cooking with acidic ingredients such as tomatoes and wine.

Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron
Traditional cast iron seasoned with vegetable oil and ready to use. Keep it dry, apply a light coating of oil when needed, and the seasoning will continue to develop with regular use.

Both offer the heat retention cast iron is known for. Choosing between them comes down to how you like to cook and care for your cookware.

Our Promise

Cast iron is tough, but shipping isn't always kind to it.

If your cookware arrives chipped, cracked or otherwise damaged, send us a photo and we'll arrange a replacement.

We also offer 30-day returns on unused cookware and a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects.

If something isn't right, or you simply have a question, please get in touch. We're here to help.
