Story
Corning Glass Works launched this pattern in 1972 to perfectly coordinate with their new line of Corelle dinnerware, tapping into the 'back-to-nature' aesthetic that defined the decade.
Maker / Origin
Corning Glass Works changed the world in 1915 when they realized that the low-expansion glass used for railroad lanterns could also survive the heat of a kitchen oven.
Condition & Value
The photos show a vibrant, glossy finish with no signs of 'dishwasher haze' or etching, which is the most common form of damage for vintage Pyrex. While 'Spring Blossom Green' is a common pattern, the presence of the original matching lid and the high-gloss finish significantly helps the value.
