The Swanndri Check Immortalised In Iron
The Swanndri Check Immortalised In Iron
Hand crafted in limited runs, this collector's edition Double Dutch Oven by Swanndri x Ironclad Co. has immortalised the Swanndri check pattern in Ironclad cast iron. A truly collectable kiwi icon and the ultimate Father's Day gift.
The limited edition Swanndri x Ironclad Co. Double Dutch Oven celebrates two iconic Kiwi brands. Cast directly into the lid of Ironclad’s 4.5L Cast Iron Old Dutch Oven is Swanndri’s legendary check pattern, immortalised in Ironclad’s premium cast iron. The base proudly features Ironclad’s Three Generation Guarantee®, a testament to its durability and legacy.
Each Dutch oven is meticulously handcrafted, blending heritage design with modern functionality. The reversible lid doubles as a skillet, adding versatility to its design. With exceptional heat retention and a 4.5L capacity, it is ideal for baking bread, slow-cooked stews, or roasting over an open flame. Whether used on an induction hob, in the oven, or at the campsite, this Dutch oven performs reliably across all heat sources.
Like all Ironclad cookware, the Swanndri Dutch Oven is built to last and comes with a 100-year replacement warranty cast into the iron. The Three Generation Guarantee® ensures it will serve meals, create memories, and be passed down through generations, making it the perfect tool for those who value craftsmanship, versatility, and tradition.

Food-Safe Cast Iron: Every Ironclad cast iron pour is quality tested to meet the highest global food and safety standards, including FDA and California Proposition 65 requirements.
Everything Compatible: Works on all heat sources, including induction, gas, electric, ceramic, BBQ, oven, pizza oven, and campfire.
Hand-Smoothed: A meticulously hand-finished cooking surface and base create a naturally non-stick pan that is gentle on delicate cooktops.
No Forever Chemicals: Free from PFAS, PFOA, and PTFE.
100-Year Product Warranty: Comes with an extraordinary Three Generation Guarantee®, cast directly into the iron. If your cookware warps, cracks, or loses structural integrity over 100 years of normal daily use, we’ll replace it.
"Normal daily use" means cooking with it, taking it camping, or using it on an oven, BBQ, or campfire. It doesn’t cover things like throwing it into the ocean on a dare, using it as a hammer, eating it, or melting it down for a drink—things of that sort.
Ironclad Vault: Each Ironclad cast iron pan includes free access to the Ironclad Vault®, a secure digital platform to store your warranty info and precious family recipes for generations to come.
The Ironclad cleaning ritual is quick and easy.

Our vision was to create a Dutch Oven that embodied the spirit of two iconic Kiwi brands. We wanted to combine Swanndri's rich heritage of outdoor apparel with Ironclad's passion for cast iron cookware. The result is a functional work of art that celebrates the beauty of New Zealand's landscapes and the joy of cooking in the great outdoors.
