Seven Of The Most Valuable Vintage Pyrex Dishes That Are Worth Collecting

Created in 1915 by Corning Inc., Pyrex has been one of the most trusted brands in kitchenware in the United States and Canada for over a century. The heat- and cold-resistant glassware is known for being durable enough for food storage in refrigerators and freezers, but also great for baking, warming, and reheating food in ovens and on stovetops.

In fact, Pyrex defined the look and appeal of mid-century kitchens. In the past, one of the main standouts of the brand was its assortment of limited-run colors, patterns, and designs, which made the kitchenware highly sought-after and very collectible—especially during the post-WWII era.

Yet during the late 1990s, Corning sold Pyrex off to Corelle Brands. The new company focused on basic measuring cups and glass food storage containers, which don’t quite have the same flair and panache as some of those older designs. 

With that in mind, we rounded up some of the most valuable vintage Pyrex kitchenware, according to eBay—with some selling for thousands upon thousands of dollars.

 

See the list here.

Surely someone out there must have these laying around! Anyone?

Ugh.  I'm sure my mom did.  Probably all got tossed or sold years ago

I have two of the 2.5qt  Turquoise Amish Butterprint Bowls.

I use them regularly

I like those! I'll have to keep an eye out for them in the antique malls. Not for the monetary value, but because they're really cool.

It's kind of funny how our brains can overlook stuff that's in our peripheral vision.

While I immediately recognized my bowls when I looked through the list last week.....it took until this morning to remember that I also have the matching butter dish.  

And E Bay shows it having higher asking prices than individual bowls....
