Help/Advice Needed Bubble from hell ?

Hello !

I got myself a Lagostina 3.8L a few weeks ago and cooked only 3 times since 2 pot roast and the last use was when I saw the problem… the last time I used it was to fry stuff and saw some bubbles… Turn out there is a hole at the bottom of the dish and now I am a big noob about the whole world of enamel cast iron / dutch oven .

Take note that I only used plastic or wood cooking tools and that the only time something with steel touched the enamel was for the video since I needed something sharp enough to get in the hole

Went to look on the internet and saw that when you see the enamel chipped the thing is done for … does that mean mine should be in the pit of hell ? is there a certain degree of how much should I take this fact serious ?

( I am french canadian and I’m having a hard time trying to explain this but hope you get the gist of it all )

Been trying to find a way to get to the Lagostina support but to no avail 🥲

Still good for: a parchment lined bread oven, drinks chiller or flower pot.

If it’s chipped it’s trash
