It was marketed as the first oven-to-dinner-table cookware. The wide-ranging collection displays an exquisite Blue Cornflower. This stylized floral bouquet look features a beautiful and simple wildflower design. Corningware products were innovative. Crafted from Pyroceram, a World War II-era composite, they can withstand extreme temperatures with no ill effects. Corning topped its casserole dishes and other bakeware with the company’s renowned Pyrex glass lids. After decades of continued popularity, Corning ceased production of Pyroceram-based Corningware in 2000. In 2001, the company rebranded with stoneware-themed bakeware. Today, vintage pieces are extremely desirable collectibles. They are especially popular among baby boomers who grew up with this beautiful, functional cookware. Corningware represents one of many trending mid-century modern items with a nostalgic connection to a simpler time. Friendly reminder these items are VINTAGE and NOT brand new.
