New Find!

Yesterday I stopped at a Goodwill store and found this Pyrex casserole, and of course, I couldn't leave it behind! I've never seen this pattern before...any ideas on what it is called, when and where it was made?

  2. Okay, this is the Saxony (official name) aka Tree of Life pattern. It's hard to tell from your picture, but the color might be a bit faded. It's typically a dark blue print over aqua blue. It's a promotional piece from 1967 and came with a cradle as pictured here:

    Hope that helps! Fun find!

  4. Great find! It's called Saxony and I found the very same one on vacation! http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-t04S0JNhghY/TfQn7HXMVrI/AAAAAAAAAbY/VNKXumx4vw8/s1600/DSCN4293.JPG
    The color of yours does appear to be faded, but it might just be the photo.

  5. Thanks everyone I'm so glad I asked! It is a bad photo because it is a very pretty aqua blue with dark blue print. I just took a quick pic of it on a dark green futon and it didn't turn out very well.
