Cooking Meat/Olive & Thyme Cookware

Question
I have what appears to be a 4-5 qt. piece of cookware that has "Olive & Thyme" on the bottom.  Can it be used in the mircoware, regular oven, stove top?  Can you help?

Answer
Olive and Thyme has been a common pattern for numerous pieces of cookware, but I think they are all enameled cast iron. You should be able to tell by the weight and by banging on it.

Cast Iron is fine for the stove and oven, not the microwave.
