The story behind the Dansk trivet is actually a fashion one: Gunnar Cyrén, an award-winning Swedish designer responsible for some of the world’s most coveted flatware, would’ve never worked with Dansk if he hadn’t walked into a Parisian hotel wearing his worst corduroy suit.
Days prior to arriving at the hotel, some time during the summer of 1969, Gunnar was in the midst of a family vacation in Sweden’s Skåne county when the phone rang. On the other line was Dansk founder Ted Nierenberg—again.

The secret ingredient in every one of our Five Two products has always been our community. Using your input and reviews, we design the ultimate tools, and that goes for our latest drop of bakeware and barware. From easy-release loaf pans to brass bottle stoppers, these game-changing goods will help make the holidays celebratory and sweet, but they’ll be just as pretty, practical, and perfect for hosting in the new year, too. Give your home bar and baking a refresh—or surprise a special host—with one of these community-inspired items.
Let us guess: You’ve been baking up a storm this season, and there’s at least one old, warped pan you’d like to remove from heavy rotation. Enter our all-new bakeware. Their two-toned design—pretty blue nonstick enamel inside, even-heating aluminized steel outside—means they travel from oven to table seamlessly and guarantee easy releases and cleaning. Add essentials like platinum-grade silicone mats and cooling racks to our sheet pans, or order as a set, and make it even easier to go from baking cookies to sliding a sheet-pan dinner into the oven.

If you know us, you know we love Dansk, the heritage brand that we added to the Food52 family in 2021. Adored by collectors and our community, Dansk helped popularize the mid-century modern look in America through its streamlined, stylish household goods designed by Danish artist, Jens Quittsgaard. You’re probably very familiar with one of his collections: the boldly colored Købenstyle line of cookware and pitchers that became instant bestsellers—and props for stars like Sarah Jessica Parker—when we reissued the collection with new and limited-edition colors.
Now, we’re excited to announce a brand-new assortment of Dansk classics in our Shop, perfect for holiday gifting and setting your table, Scandinavian-style. These new Dansk reissues are all based upon Jens' original designs, and include pieces that will make entertaining more magical this season, from teak salad bowls to iconic candle holders. Here are a few of the time-tested pieces you’ll want to add to your growing Dansk collection—we’re pretty sure you’ll be just as smitten with them as we are. (Plus, on Nov. 14, you can take 30% off with code DANSK30.)
If you’ve taken a peek at Dansk’s Købenstyle line, you’re probably already familiar with the butter warmer—the tiny (we’re talking 0.59-quart capacity), surprisingly versatile pot that rarely leaves our stovetops.

If you’ve taken a peek at Dansk’s Købenstyle line, you’re probably already familiar with the butter warmer—the tiny (we’re talking 0.59-quart capacity), surprisingly versatile pot that rarely leaves our stovetops.
Designed by Jens Quistgaard in 1956, this butter warmer was made for, well, warming butter. Think: melting butter to pour on popcorn, or browning butter for chocolate chip cookies. But it’s good for much more than that. Here are seven of our favorite ways to use this handy piece of cookware—none of which have to do with butter.

There are a few pieces of cookware that make repeat appearances in our cooking photos, and a white, wooden-handle Le Creuset pan is one of them.
You can spot it in some of Sohla El-Waylly’s recipes, this Genius recipe, and other one-skillet gems. For years our community asked us to source and sell it, an impossible task since Food52 founder Amanda Hesser picked it up at a vintage store, but now—surprise!—we’ve got the brand-new reissue in our Shop.

For cookware collectors, Le Creuset might just be the holy grail. The French brand has created a legacy for producing high-quality, beautiful, one-of-a-kind cookware pieces that are cherished enough to have a Reddit group and a fan club of “supercollectors” that the Guardian recently uncovered.
And now, Salon reports, Gen Z is a huge fan, too. “The French enamel cookware company has managed to effortlessly blur the line between functional cookware and home decor. Some are in it for efficiency. Others, mainly for the visuals and design,” writes Joy Saha.

Home cooks and design fans alike love our Dansk Købenstyle cookware for its iconic, mid-century modern looks and bright, bold colors. And now, we have two new limited-edition hues to light up your collection: Deep, earthy Chestnut and glossy, green Arugula, available for our Dansk butter warmer, saucepans, baker, and casserole. You may recognize them from our recent Dansk Købenstyle pitcher color drop. Both capture the spirit of fall and the holidays, with that signature Dansk pop of style.
Aside from these vibrant new colorways, it’s very telling that little else has changed about Købenstyle since it debuted in the 1950s. Artist Jens Quistgaard designed the cookware to be as beautiful as it is functional, with details such as sculptural-yet-practical teakwood handles that stay cool on your stove. He also used enameled carbon steel for his pieces to provide a lightweight counterpart to heavy cast-iron. The lids are famously designed to double as trivets—lay one on your table, and its raised handle provides a pedestal for your Købenstyle butter warmer, saucepans, baker, or casserole. When dinner’s done, the lids then make it easy to stack (and admire) your cookware—preferably on an open shelf.

We’re officially in that post-Labor Day transition time where the abundance of sunshine and summer produce tricks us into thinking fall is not around the corner.

If you’re a fan of multi-purpose cookware, you've come to the right place. Staub—the famous French cookware brand—has a two-in-one grill pan and cocotte and it’s on sale right now.
If you’re unfamiliar with what a piece like this could do for you and your kitchen, this tried-and-tested review of its smaller 3.4-quart twin will help paint the picture. Essentially, if you’re looking for something that can cook soup, stew, or pasta while you simultaneously grill bread, vegetables, or anything your heart desires without having to reach for a new pan, this larger, 6.4-quart take on our first 2-in-1 collaboration with French maker Staub was made for you. It might look like just another dish perfect for your one-pot dinner, but its lid doubles as a grill pan, which we think is pretty cool.
