- I know a lot of our food friends enjoy collecting Pyrex, Fire King, and other vintage kitchenware. There isn't a lot in my collection, but here is a sampling of pieces I've picked up over the years.

When I first started housekeeping back in the 1970s I would pick up Fire King and Pyrex from the thrift stores. When guests come over and see my kitchen they usually say you got Fort Knox here! I never paid over a dollar for anyting. I have a lot of the odd and unusual pieces.
Sounds like you have a fun collection! I'm like you - I started buying these in the 1980's and they were very inexpensive at the time. Prices for collectables go up and down depending on what's popular. Thanks!
You called that housekeeping 😊
I have to laugh. My Mom had the four bowl set you first showed. I remember everything being mixed in those. When her yellow bowl broke she wrote a eulogy for it.
Hi Jane - sounds like you mom really loved her bowl set!!
My mom and grandma had that set. When I grew up, if you said "big yellow mixing bowl" everyone knew what you meant bc everybody had one. I also started thrifting in the late 1970s and I remember getting the little blue bowl for a nickel.
My daughter now looks for vintage pyrex, to use not collect.
That's the joy of pyrex ... those pieces are so full of memories and they last forever.
Hearing an old song brings back memories from very long ago
i never realized
But Pyrex dishes brings back a ton of warm memories also.
I bought the first set shown in an antique store….In 1969 I received the yellow set of 4 mixing bowls (Daisy?), and the yellow oval casserole dish for a wedding gift…have the chartreuse (green) casserole dish from my mom, and some smaller dishes! All Pyrex! Really well-made and I packed them up and moved so many times in my earlier years-never broke any of them! Set up married life at age 20 and I’m now 75 years old! The Pyrex and me are still going strong! 😂😂Sherryl Weber
My mom is 83 years old this year. She bought pyrex sets when she was teaching as teacher. She had been using it until now
Thanks - glad to know you mom got many years of use from her Pyrex. It was made to last. Thanks!
I inherited my grandma's Fire King handled soup bowls in peach luster. I recall many a bowl of chicken noodle soup being served to me in these bowls and treasure them now. Mom had the colored pyrex mixing bowls and lots of the white and blue cornflower pyrex.
Hi Kim - nice memories about the peach luster bowls and the chicken soup! Great that you have those bowls now - something to cherish for sure! Thanks!
Gotta love the burnt orange, harvest Gold, and Olive greens. Bringing it back baby bringing it back!💜
Hi Starseed - love those 70's colors!
I would be lost without my Pyrex storage containers. All from thrift stores and garage sales. They are awesome, store easily, stack well. AND save a ton of plastic.
I use all my Pyrex! I don’t care what color or what pattern they are. The divided ones are nice if you’re cooking or reheating a meal for one.
I hear that they’re madly collectible now. Luckily I got plenty before the prices jumped.
Big fan of the colored Pyrex. I have several pieces from my mom, grandma, cousins, etc… I love using them and remembering those wonderful women who are no longer here❤️
I have my mother 's Pink Gooseberry mixing bowl set. I saw it in an antique store in middle Georgia for $395. Pyrex seems to be getting rare, especially complete sets. I like the pouring spouts. Always hand wash. Thanks for showing your items.
Hi Fred - nice that you have your mom's set. The prices are a little crazy for some of this stuff. It's popular at the moment, so the prices go up. I've seen this with a lot of things over the years. I like the spouts, too - very handy. Thanks!
I love them both. I never grew up with them. I use everything I buy, and have a variety of Pyrex and Fire King.
I still have and use my pyrex casserole dishes that
I got as wedding presents 54 years ago.
I have the little blue storage container with the lid on the 3rd shelf but thought it was a butter dish. I buy butter in a solid one pound block and it fits perfectly. I’ve used it for years. I have a lot of pieces that I have inherited over the years.
That's a great use for that Pyrex storage container! Thanks!
Hi from rural Queensland, Australia. I am 70 and remember my mother collecting little dishes she called ramicans (? spelling). They came as a bonus gift in the soap powder she used - Surf or Fab. They were really handy for parties for tomato sauce etc. I have one bowl left from my set of mixing bowls (orange and yellow alternate), just like you showed but since I only have one left i do stick it in the dishwasher, really who will care about it when i am gone. loved watching your displays, it would be good to hear your history of why you have such an extensive collection of things. thank you stay safe
I love these! My grandmother, mother and I had so many patterns. Thanks for sharing.
You're welcome, Valli!
Recently started collecting Pyrex and fire king. Love your channel and your vintage kitchens
Thanks, Jane! Have fun collecting!!
Yay Pyrex! I thrifted 10 full sets, 10 3 bowl sets, 10 fridges, a couple of pie plates, a loaf pan, a couple of large single bowls which I use. A few casseroles. As I said I bought when you could find a 4 bowl set for $10. I don't buy now, now that its trendy and the prices are crazy.
I have a few pieces of Fireking and Hazel Atlas.
It was great looking at your collection.
Hi Sandra! Glad you enjoyed looking at the Pyrex. Like you, I found these years ago and they were only a couple of dollars at the most. Thanks!
Wow, what a collection of vintage kitchenware you have accumulated! Love the vintage Pyrex and Fire King. WS hoping to see some jadeite pieces but maybe in a other video. Thanks for sharing!
Love my mom's Pyrex and blue cornflower Corning Ware and use it every day. I replaced a mixing bowl a few months ago and was proud to get it for $30. Great collection!
I received the Crazy Daisy Cinderella bowls at my wedding shower in 1976. Still have them and I’ve added many more pieces of Pyrex and fire king to my collection.
The pattern on the Delphite Blue Bowl is called golden grapes. Delphite Blue is so fun as it wasn’t made with many patterns. That one came out in 1960. 😊
Thanks so much for the information!
My literal dream!!!! I've been thrifting for vintage pyrex lately I collect them , if I found those I would scream 😂 I found fire king today at a thrift store BUT I didn't pick it up because I have limited space right now haha
Hi Brooke - seems like there is a lot of this out there. They made millions of pieces so when you find more room you can keep collecting!
Wow, id like to buy them all 😂😂!
Love this episode 😍❤️💕 lots of warm memories. Thank you 😊 hmm would love to see a lasagna recipe done in of your beautiful dishes! 😍
Great idea with the lasagna! Thanks, Michelle!
wow you didn't bang one against the other and chip them even once! I think these glass items are gaining popularity due to increased awareness of the environmental problems of single use plastics. Blue Cornflower remains my favorite.
I've never chipped a piece of Pyrex. Amazing how strong they are. You may be correct about people getting away from plastics and going with glass. Thanks!
I collect Pyrex love it
Thank you so much for sharing your Pyrex and Fire King collection. I enjoyed seeing it. I have a small collection of Pyrex: Amish Butterprint small mixer and casserole, Americana Cinderella bowl set, Butterfly Gold fridgie set and mixer set, Blue Cornflower carafes, coffee cups, and assorted bakeware, Butterfly Gold dinnerware and coffee cups, the original Primary fridgie set, the 403 and 404 mixers of the original Primary mixer set, and a ton of items including Fire King bakeware and soup bowls and coffee cups.
Hi brownsuga! You've got a wonderful collection of Pyrex!! Enjoy!
I think the reason it has become so popular is that recent years is when people have realized modern pyrex isn’t the same stuff our parents and grandparents used.
I just found out our impossible-to-break mixing bowls & casserole dishes I grew up with are PYREX and have resigned myself to collecting the good stuff as I set up my first home lol. I’d rather spend twice as much for these that will last a second lifetime than have to replace my items in a decade.
Hi Cianna - you could be right about that. I know that the don't use the same process and glass that they used to, and the vintage Pyrex really holds up well. Thanks!
Hi Kevin and MaryAnn I started collecting Golden Butterfly and have quite a bit now. No bowls though! I also collect the green daisy dishes. Lots of fun and I love to use them. My 96 yr. old mom still has her original 4 bowl set (yellow, green, red and blue). We never had any problem from lead. 😊 Actually I recently read an article from the company that those reports aren't true.
Glad you mom is still using her set of bowls! We continue to use our Pyrex. Thanks!
I am a huge fan of Pyrex and fire king...my mom had the cornflower set...I love the gold irreverent set and collect them....would love to find the bowls ❤
We had the fire king white dishes with little red and pink flowers on them. Loved the custard bowls. I still have the long casserole dish. Married in 1962. Purchased in 1961
I love your show and your shop is wonderful!
Oh that set of bowls !! Memories of Mom's.....I broke one, she wasn't happy. I've been collecting, all stored in boxes.
Good morning! Love this video! Awesome collection!🥰🥰
Thanks so much, GSM!
Love everything you post
Glad you enjoy the videos!
I have six large tuff totes full of peach luster Fire King. I use it everyday. I use my pyrex everyday. All of it was inherited.
The blue pattern is the one that I gave my daughter.
It's the snowflake pattern.
I love Pyrex! I have quite a collection.
I love your knowledge and enthusiasm about everything
Thanks, Lauren!
Love this channel love Fire King and Pyrex! Desperately searching for the Red Pyrex mixing bowl!
Thank you for sharing your collection. You have some great pieces!
Thank you!
So many beautiful pieces! Brought back some good memories too. I must say I got a bit nervous with all the clinking - kept seeing chips happening.
Hi, Kevin and Mary Ann. I enjoy your videos. This episode is one of my favorites. My mom had the colonial set and the golden butterfly. I used to have an oval snowflake casserole, but broke it. I have a small collection of Corning ware blue flower and spice patterns. I use them all the time.
Hi Lisa - sounds like you have a nice collection - I'm glad you use them and enjoy them! Thanks!
Cinderella bowl! Never knew that term, and now I notice the different handle/pourer sizes! Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Kevin!
You're welcome!
I’ve also heard it referred to as the slipper bowl. Somebody was close, but didn’t get it quite right
Fun memories
Thanks, Cindy!
Love pyrex for the oven & freezer. Those big yellow bowls were the best for mixing ingredients in. Our family had a lot 9×13, 8×8, etc, but not any bowls/ containers w/lids. Love this episode. Thank you Maryann for the camera work.
Thanks, Sallie!
Love your videos. I have some pieces of the Pyrex. Anchor hocking and Corning ware cookware. They are my go to piece’s for mixing and baking casseroles. Like you and Mary Ann, I grew up with them in our home and still have pieces I’ve bought or collected through the years. I can’t imagine my kitchen without them.❤
Hi Shirley! What would we do without this cookware in the kitchen? Glad you still use and enjoy your vintage pieces!
Very cool. For some reason, I never saw Fire King, outside of a dinner set my parents had back in the 60's that were the opal glass, color glaze set. My memory of that was hazy as I was a wee tot when they still had it.
I have a bunch of the colorware myself, including the flamingo colored pie dish and a cake pan (one has speckles), the square ramikins, both the 12 Oz in yellow, though not in the best of shape, and were that way when I got them. Not chipped but slightly faded, though I do NOT put them in the dishwasher. I have also the red 7 Oz size as well, a red square bowl that I eat out of and have 2 covered square casseroles, both yellow in like new shape.
I do have 2 pieces of the Terra, one is the round covered casserole, it was my mothers and a single handleless cup that I use for small utensils.
I have 2 refrigerator sets, one is all white, the other is the multicolor set, with all pieces and the lids. The large casserole I use as a cheese box and is yellow. One of the small red containers is for the kosher salt.
I do have the multicolor colorware mixing bowl sets in opal glass. Mine has the big bowl in yellow. I think later sets had the green/yellow bowls swapped where the large is green. Most of this I got when you could still find good quality vintage pieces for good prices at estate sales etc over 30 years ago.
Enjoy using my stuff when I do.
Sounds like you have a nice collection, John! Glad you use and enjoy yours! Thanks!
@@cavalcadeoffood Thanks Kevin, Mind you, the memory of the Fire King was a coffee cup, I think in yellow and that was it By the time I was 5, we'd replaced it with something else for daily dishware.
Oh how much fun it was to see this! I collect Fire King although I do have a few random Pyrex pieces including the pink casserole you showed which is my go-to for tuna casserole. Mostly I collect Fire King's Candleglow or Chanticleer with it's puffed up rooster on the sides. I have casseroles, mixing bowls, custard cups and even a couple mugs which are pretty hard to find. I use mine, but you're correct- NEVER put them in the dishwasher if you don't want them ruined fast! I've always hand washed them and even after all these years they still look about new. I'm still always on the lookout for more even though I have no room left.
Thanks, bdh70! Funny, I use that Pyrex casserole for tuna casserole, too! It's perfect for it. As you can see, I don't have a lot of Fire King but always found it to be great kitchenware, and washed by hand will look good forever. Thanks!
Not only do I collect the Fire King Peach Luster.. like the bowl with a handle on it.. but I also use them as my normal dishes!! I love the soup bowls because you can put them in the fridge with the lid after the first day .. then put them in the oven the next day and heat them up !! I set the oven on 400 and my dill pickle soup heats fantastic.. all Fire King housewares can go in the oven... love your show!!!!
Thanks and glad to know that you are using your Fire King dishes!
Nice collection of the Pyrex and Fire King. I don't think I have any Fire King, but do have a mix of Pyrex. I used to use them all the time, but don't so much anymore. Thanks for the video.
You're welcome, Scooter!!
I love the turquoise and pink! i love jadeite as well!
Thanks for watching!
I had the green bowl for many years from the set you first showed. I made rice pudding, bread pudding, and Spanish rice in it. I think I took it to some get together and forgot it there. I noticed it missing later and think maybe I took it to work. I learned the hard way not to take my favorite dishes out of the house or lend them. I have lost other favorite items that way. It deserved a eulogy as someone else mentioned here.
Kevin brings back some great memories from when I was an adolescent. My Mom has the pearlescent type of soup bowls and a couple of the baking dishes. I remember the many yummy casseroles over the years Mom made in these. Mom also has a couple of the clear lid and bowl casserole dishes too. Many cream corn casseroles and meatloaves made in those. You have such a nice collection of Purex. Enjoyed the review. Love from Ky.
Thanks, Tamson! Glad it brought back good memories!
@@cavalcadeoffood Enjoy watching your wonderful cooking & vintage reviews. Thank you for sharing the history too.
Pyrex pink berries! I have my Mom's mixing bowl set as well as a few pieces of my Mamaw's ❤😊
I collect and use Pyrex and Fire King. I had to stop your vlog for a minute to look at a Pyrex bowl that I got at my favorite thrift store a while back. It was the large brown bowl with the early American pattern on it like yours. I bought it for $2. I also have a casserole dish with a metal serving stand that was my mother's. I still use it for potlucks and stuff. I have a light blue Fire King platter that mom always used. Thanks
Glad you spotted some familiar pieces! Thanks!
Starting collecting Pyrex a few years ago! I have my grandparents mixing bowl set and I actually have 2 green bowls.
Hi Dale - sounds like you've got a nice collection going!
I picked up a small and large milk glass bowl by Glasbake for the Sunbeam Mixmaster yesterday. Apparently, some of the older more rare green and yellow bowls glow under a black light because of the uranium in them. They are not just from the atomic era, but actually are atomic(low harmless levels).
Hi Mike - quite a number of things were made with uranium glass. I have a friend that has a large collection and displays them under black lights. The glow is really beautiful. The milk glass Mixmaster bowls are nice!
First time I clicked on your site, am fascinated by all of your vintage items. Going to Google to see where you are & if this is a store.
Kevin this is the end of the article about Pyrex and lead:
"We were unable to locate any other information substantiating the claim that vintage Pyrex contained any worrisome levels of lead. All information we could find indicated that the method of production has stayed consistent for 60 years. The FDA began enforcing limits on leachable lead in 1971, and a vintage Pyrex pattern commonly targeted as purportedly high in lead content didn't even go into production until 1972, after all manufacturers were subject to the FDA's new leachable lead standards."
Just checking in on that -- I grew up in a family with a lot of PYREX dishware -- mixing bowls/measuring-cups/baking-dishes -- all vintage '50's/60's -- and still live with it now -- so this is of some interest.
Note that there might be some difference between 'PYREX' and 'Pyrex' - ? -- maybe a production change, but seemingly changing at a particular date... I don't know what the facts are, just trying to relay the news that there has been some concern with the product.
Ps - not noticing any lead-poisoning symptoms myself at the moment !
My point/question is -- hopefully there would be some serious checking on "pre-1971" PYREX. There's a lot of it out there.
Hopefully all's good -- just seeing some kickback out there online
Thanks for sharing this cbhamilton! I continue to use and enjoy my Pyrex.
@@cavalcadeoffood you're welcome. I love using mine. I have for 66 years and no problems. 😊
I bought the Corelle blue Cornflower pattern dishes with matching flatware for my hope chest before I got married. I have rarely seen the flatware since then. It was stainless with plasti-dip handles in blue.
I have quite a few Pyrex pieces and am a big fan. My mom didn’t have very many pieces, but she did have quite a few of the refrigerator dishes. I’d like to get some of those myself.
Hi Cynthia - I don't think I've ever seen the flatware - nice that you have a set of them!
I have a huge set of the Corn flower dishes. At least 51 pcs. Including the original white electric flat plate to cook on. Which I do use.. I love my Corning Ware. For Pyrex have at about a dozen of mostly pastel color I got because I liked the color and size. I use those little rectangular storage dishes to bake little loves of banana bread.
@@PK-bh1ww Wow! That’s really cool that you have so many pieces. They are harder to find because that color wasn’t as popular back then. Most people wanted the green or gold. I was always a little different, I guess. I gave the flatware to my oldest daughter and I got rid of the dishes somewhere along the way(been married 48 years). I recently found a couple of the lunch size plates at a thrift store, but they are plain. I like using them and it reminds me why I liked the dishes in the first place. Thanks for sharing!
@@cynthiafisher9907 I have some Corning plain white plates too. And white coffee ups. Most pcs I got at thrift stores for $4 or less. But I see they sell on line for a lot more.
I love these vintage dishes i have a little collection of odds and ends and i have some fireking
Hi Elaine! I think it's nice to have a collection of things that you like, even if they are not all the same. Enjoy!
Enjoyed this video. I have so many pieces it’s a nightmare.
I do not use them and I can’t make myself get rid of them.
Same thing with the McCoys I kind of overdid collecting those.
I just got a super clean avacado Mixmaster with a small clear Fire King mixing bowl. The small Mixmaster and Oster Kitchen Center glass bowls have the same profile and seem to be interchangeable. I tested them with just the beaters(no batter), and they move the same way.
Hi Mike - if the Mixmaster is avocado green then it's likely from the same era as the kitchen center (Sunbeam and Oster were the same company) - they shared a number of parts. Enjoy that mixer!!
Oh my goodness, I didn't know you had another channel- I'm here from Always Analog and just subscribed!
I LOVE PYREX and collect it too! I started around 2015 or 2016. I've inherited many pieces from older relatives, and I pick them up from thrift stores, yard sales, antique stores, etc.
They are so beautiful and also so practical, even for basic cooking like making scrambled eggs (the Cinderella mixing bowls are perfect for that!) or as snack bowls for popcorn and chips lol
I do a little bit of baking sometimes (basic stuff lol) but it looks like there's all sorts of recipes here on this channel! So happy it found it 😊
Hi thirftyfawn! I'm glad you found my channels, too! Pyrex is great - and like you mentioned it is great for many uses. I scramble eggs in a Pyrex bowl, too! When I have a party I always put out chips, pretzels, etc. in Pyrex. Glad you collect - they are fun! Enjoy!
@@cavalcadeoffood I'll re-watch this upload again sometime this weekend or whenever I get a chance, to help identify any of the patterns that were outstanding! I was studying them a while back, I do know some of them, and can look up some more of them too!
Take care and thanks for the cool upload!
Fawn 😊
My mom made macaroni and cheese with stewed tomatoes, and also made baked beans in the big yellow mixing bowl. I'm one of 4 siblings and apparently I'm the only one who liked either dish!
Hi Robin! Funny to find out later than you were the only one who liked those dishes your mom made. They sound yummy to me!
The two and half qt. baking dish in the orange, yellow and brown was called the Town and Country pattern.
Thanks for letting me know, cunard61!!
Wow!I’m new to your channel, what an amazing collection! I’d love to visit your store. Love to see those vintage items
Welcome to the channel! I don't have a store - it is just a personal collection. Thanks!
@@cavalcadeoffoodthis isnt a store????
@@Notturnoir no, it's not a store. Just a personal collection.
Still have and use two of these Pyrex blue casserole and also a clear cake baking dish.
The turquoise on white print with rooster and farmer is called Butterprint. 1957-1968. In the later years it was available in Turquoise with white. And yes, the bowls with 2 spouts or handles are called Cinderella. I wonder why.
Thanks so much for letting me know!
I have a set of the yellow green red blue set of bowls. I don't use them as they were my mom's. she's been gone almost 2yrs now. The blue broke maybe 20yrs ago but I found a replacement at a thrift store maybe 5yrs ago. I don't know why you don't have more subscribers. I hope to visit your place one day. It's on the bucket list.
So glad you were able to find a replacement blue bowl! Nice that you have your mom's set. Thanks!
I don't collect. But you've help me identify the glassware I have of my Mom's .
Glad the video helped. Thanks!
The white Pyrex with yellow pattern is called TOWN AND COUNTRY. The white bowl with the turquoise farmer pattern is called BUTTERPRINT.
Nicole - thanks for the good information!
We use coffee filters in between each dish. I looked all over but I did find larger coffee filters. You can ad 2 in the larger bowls and cake pans.
I have a 4 piece set of the pink bowls that was handed down from my mom from when she got married. I love them but never use them for fear of breaking one.
Hi Louise - nice that you have your mom's set! Thanks!
Not really popular here in the UK, but always remember my Aunt visiting from Australia and she was really surprised they were not popular here, she said she always put it in the car boot on vacation holidays to use in motel rooms !!
Thanks - interesting to hear that these were also popular in Australia. Thanks!
The friendship pattern was the blue bird with hearts print. Was only avaliable in 1975.
My grandmother has a counter saver with that pattern. There is a place on the net that deals in vintage and out of print corningware, Corell among other dishes. I bought a set of those first pyrex mixing bowls.
I'll shoot ya a picture of the friendship pattern, what's the best way to send ya pictures?
Love the videos Kevin, so awesome you have great family and friends to help you film your videos.
If I ever make it to Michigan I'd love to come see cavalcade in person. I'm a sucker for all them old appliances.
Thanks for the info on the friendship pattern - I didn't know it was just a one-year pattern. You can email me photos at cavalcadevintage@gmail.com Thanks!
I have quite a bit of American including a fridge set. I like it. I call the pattern at 4:00 Amish Butter Print.
I went to Goodwill a couple weeks ago and found a butter dish in Crazy Daisy for less than $2.00. Hadn't been since winter 2020 so I picked the right day to return. I have a bit of that also. I assume the large bowls were used frequently and were broken a lot. You see many 3 bowl sets but not the larger bowl. Autumn Harvest came in a 3 bowl set so other patterns might have also.
I think you’re right about the Amish Butterprint. Also, the word Quimper is pronunce “Keem-Pare”.
Thanks, TW1257 for the info. I think the big bowl is often the one that broke, so you only have a three bowl set remaining.
The Butter dish is worth $40.00. I looked it up because I use the same butter dish every day.
I collect both and use them and i also collect and use corning ware ❤
Fun things to collect, and Corningware, too! Enjoy!
I have several of these golden shiny ones. Pearlist
Funnily enough, we were just sitting down to a supper of "Vintage" shrimp casserole when we got this video in our feed. We have a bit of Pyrex (I am actually more of a Corningware collector) and use it all the time. I think my favorite pattern is called "Mulberry", but I'm not sure. My roommate will only make certain casseroles in his Mother's Pyrex dishes.
Hi Jon - that shrimp casserole sounds good! Corningware is another great thing to collect. Thanks!
I have about a dozen Pyrex in pattern and plain. I don't collect it. Just bought what I have because I liked the color and size. I have a bit of Fire King too. And a big collection of Corning Ware in Blue Cornflower. Including the original white electric plate to cook on which do use. I would rather use this older stuff than todays knew. Mostly because I grew up with it and it has a homey feel more than the new.
The Blue Cornflower Corningware is wonderful! Enjoy yours!
We call those glass lidded rectangles "fridgies" we had those growing up and there was a large yellow one a medium-size blue one and two red ones and they all nestled together so that you could store things in the refrigerator
I have a few Pyrex Early American pieces, mostly the bowls. They came from an auction with the original brochure still inside, so they were never used. Definitely hand wash and I don't put the pieces with metal decoration in the microwave. I do make banana pudding in the #2 bowl and it's a perfect fit. My mom has a lot of Pyrex and Corning Ware and it's never caused any problems from lead and it can go from oven to table to fridge, unlike plastic. Thanks for the Pyrex tour. Have you done one on Corning Ware yet?
Hi Jonathan - I can see how that bowl is perfect for banana pudding! I don't have that much Corning Ware - just a few piece of the blue cornflower line. Thanks!
I love seeing all those dishes. Do you sell these items or just collect?
Where the heck is Ralph??? I mean we love Maryann but it's been awhile I hope he is doing well!!!!
Ralph is super busy with work right now. Actually, so am I, right now. But he will be back as soon as time allows. He's doing great!
I got my first PYREX mixing bowl at the thrift today. It is the red one from the primary color set, but the color is dull and cloudy from DWD(dish washing damage). I might try applying some Turtle wax(car wax) to the outside.
Hi Mike - I've seen so many of those Pyrex bowls (and Fire King) damaged from dishwashers. I don't know if there is a product that will bring the finish back, but car wax might do something to help. Let me know! Thanks!
The pattern of the seventy five cent bowl is called Town and Country. It was also printed in brown and orange.
Interesting nesting bowl collection and Cinderella nesting bowls you have that napkin figurine I am surprised you didn’t lump Corning ware to this video
I don't have that much Corning Ware, actually. I have a few pieces of the blue cornflower line, but that's about it. Thanks!
You don’t find a lot of sets because they are easily broken. I have a set I got at an estate sale. The person was a widower of about 45 years. He was 92 when he passed.
I use my covered Pyrex to cook and store food in the fridge - I haven’t needed to use cling wrap in ages, in fact I don’t even buy it anymore.
That’s an amazing collection- do you hire it out for movies?
The "farmer" print bowl is Amish Butterprint :)
Thanks, JC!
The cinderella turquoise pattern is called Amish butterprint.
I received a lot of Pyrex when I got married in 1971, I still have them. Love them. Do you sell the stoves you gave there?
Glad you are still enjoying your Pyrex! No, I don't sell anything - it's just a collection.
Please expand your channel and include a segment on Landline telephones. I had a little antique store and people could not get enough of landline phones, even dial phones, candlestick phones, novelty phones, etc. People use them as conversation peices; I still have a landline phone account. Even Pottery Barn captured part of the market with their "retro style" push button desk phone...
First one you showed is primary 400 series I have a set which is the second one. Original I lost because of a person beater who was a Mail order priest.
I am after the fridge primary set!
I hope you find that fridge set!
Fire King patterns are Peach Lustre, Gay Fad, and Primrose. For some reason, the Peach Lustre is never in great shape but it's so common. I'd go crazy to find any of these with new tags!!!!
Hi Patricia - I think some people unfortunately put their Peach Lustre in the dishwasher, which eroded the color and shine. Thanks!
Yo también dije :pie!
great collection! Do you have a physical store?
Thank you! No, I'm a collector - no store.
Just found your channel and I LOVE the content! I've been binge watching several videos, and I really hate to criticize anyone, could you possibly try a tripod? The sloppy Joe episode I had to stop watching because of so much camera movement. I'm really looking forward to watching the rest of your videos, like I said I love the content very much!!
the ones with the glass tops are called casserole dishes
Thanks for letting me know!
