I Promised You Aqua!

A week ago I promised you that I would share with you my last piece of promotional Pyrex in one of the most popular colors…….aqua!



Well, according to Pyrex Love and PyreXFiles, it seems I might have lied (but I didn't mean to!). They call this design Blue Wheat……but doesn't it look aqua to you?


This 1.5 quart round hostess casserole is a 1961 Christmas Promotion. I found the bottom at a local junk store and one week later (with dimensions in hand) found the lid at a vintage glass shop on the Alabama Coast.

I wonder if this one came with a cradle?

  5. in my new pyrex book that lid is used as a baking dish too - that is why it is so deep!
