Always goes back to the normal color when it cools off. Since the lid gets pulled out of the oven before the pot, there's always quite a difference between them in color when the pot comes out.

The color brightened up a bit when it cooled down but it is darker than when it was new. I had the same thing happen this week with my Chantal red ceramic pie dish.

I'll look for the color change. BTW, I found a great (metal)cabinet knob at Menards today to replace the plastic knob on the pot. It's pretty too!

It always darkens when it's in the oven, but once it cools down it returns to normal. No worries. I have the same pot, and have baked No-Knead bread in it 6 times now.

But isn't that what Le Creuset is for? Yeah, my fire engine-red Le Creuset has taken a bit of a beating because of the no-knead bread. But isn't that what Le Creuset is for?

However, the LC enamel returns to the original color after cooling to room temperature. Same thing happens to the Le Creuset pots when they're heated above 450 degrees.

A friend who works for Target's Corporate HQ made a great Chicken Caccitore in hers and it came out of the oven very, very dark. I think it lightened up as it cooled, though, at that point I wasn't paying attention. I have only used mine on the stove top and haven't seen the discoloration. I've seen it happen, too.
