Nice color, I think I have a Le Creuset cast iron pot that's exactly the same.

Not sure. Could be. What are the shape of the swivels? Believe this or not, a lot of old Murat plugs had square swivels. I kid you not. I'll post some pics of them over the weekend as I'm out the door to catch a flight on business right now.

The swivels aren't square, theres a small weight right behind the rear hook, and the thing is pretty heavy for a plug that size.
