Pyrex 'Horizon Blue' Cinderella Mixing Bowl, Model 441

Story

Released in 1969, this pattern was created to commemorate the historic Apollo 11 moon landing. Advertisements at the time famously depicted these bowls sitting on the lunar surface with Earth in the distance, celebrating a new 'space age' aesthetic for the American kitchen.

Maker / Origin

Pyrex was born in 1915 when a Corning scientist's wife used a sawed-off battery jar to bake a cake, proving that borosilicate glass could handle extreme heat. By the 1960s, Pyrex had become a cultural icon, blending industrial-strength durability with vibrant, mid-century modern designs that defined the look of the suburban home.

Condition & Value

The pattern appears exceptionally bright and intact with no visible 'DWD' (dishwasher damage) or fading. The handles look clean, though the interior should be checked for gray metal marks from whisks, which can be removed with specialized cleaners. Excellent condition overall.
