Well CorningWare is turning 60 years old this year.
Much to my delight Corning has a nice array of 60th Anniversary special edition products. I started with the 3 piece mixing bowl set featuring the Cornflower Pattern. The bowls are 1, 1.5, and 2.75 qt, and they seem to be of similar material as the Corning Centura dinnerware was. All the Anniversary special items are all in the Cornflower pattern. They also have a few Pyroceram casseroles, some baking pans in various sizes, ramekins, Corelli dinnerware, Pyrex storage bowl, and a 2 cup Pyrex measuring cup. Here are pics of the mixing bowls. I figured they would be great for daily use instead of the vintage Pyrex since these can go in dishwasher. | ||

On the 50th, they brought back Pyroceram For the 60th, you humble range-jockey suggested via email that they should combine the classic square shape of CorningWare with the see-through properties of Visions and call it 
Instead, they called it Visions Reverse and it's only sold in Europe and Asia. Go figure. CLICK HERE TO GO TO joeekaitis's LINK | ||

This one's a recipe for disaster . . .
How many Baby Boomers have watched Mom or Grandma throw their CorningWare Pyroceram pie plate on the stove to melt the butter for a graham cracker crust?
Do the same with this one (who reads warnings anymore anyway?) and your dessert plans will meet an explosive end. CLICK HERE TO GO TO joeekaitis's LINK

"I hope the 60th Anniversary pieces . . . "
" . . . are produced by Corning and to the same high standards of the original pieces"
Apparently the only legacy Corning works in operation are the Corelle factory in Corning, New York and the Pyrex plant in Charleroi, Pennsylvania. Thus, the Corelle Vitrelle plates and bowls but not the mugs and the Pyrex glassware are made in the USA. Accessories might come from various sources. Read the detailed descriptions of each item.
The Pyroceram pieces are made in France, probably in the same factory that makes Luminarc for the European market. The Pyrex lids don't have a country of origin molded into them but might come from the USA or France. | ||
