It’s an interesting piece. May have been Le Creuset trying to explore the Japanese market. The round handles don’t look like Le Creuset. Wood lids are used in some Japanese cast iron cookware, especially Nabemono / Hot Pot (sukiyaki / shabu shabu) pots. Also some Chinese wok lids are wood. The lids are usually made of a steam/heat pressed wood and are good to temps. up to around 450F.
