A La Cornue stove is a hand-built French cooking appliance that pairs a rangetop with a roasting oven, made to order in Saint-Ouen-l’Aumône by the brand’s Compagnons since 1908. Stoves draw from the Château and CornuFé families and are offered in three fuel layouts — gas, dual-fuel, and full induction — so a single label covers everything from a brass-burner gas cooker to a five-zone induction CornuFé. Brass “flammes” burners, the option of a cast-iron French Top, and vitreous-enamel finishes in roughly 50 colours plus brass, nickel, chrome, or copper trim define the look.
How a La Cornue stove is specified
Each stove is built by family, size, fuel, finish, and trim — the same configuration logic that runs across the whole line. A gas stove uses manifold valves and electronic spark ignition with a glow-bar oven igniter; a dual-fuel stove adds an electric oven circuit; and an induction stove brings ceramic-glass zones with a pan detector and a residual-heat “H” indicator. Because every unit is assembled by hand, parts and finishes are matched carefully at service time rather than pulled from a generic shelf.
Service for your stove
If your stove shows a warning sign — a yellow flame, a burner that will not light, an oven that will not heat — start with our diagnostics in the fault database, then book hands-on work through stove repair (from $X). Our technicians service gas, dual-fuel, and induction stoves of any age or finish, using genuine parts under the 5-year parts-and-labour warranty and coordinating components through the National Service Center where needed. Whether your stove wears a classic Ivory enamel or a Suzanne Kasler colour, the brass, nickel, chrome, or copper trim is treated with the same care as the working parts. Browse the wider catalogue in the model lineup, and confirm specifications on the official La Cornue site.
