So, do you purchase these works of art already done up, or do you decorate them yourselves? They are so amazing, and definitely bring a whole new ball game to cooking.Rachael Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17724451664082101960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6761058064933339220.post-39716247201417352282012-01-19T23:33:00.011-08:002012-01-19T23:33:00.011-08:00I'm a newbie with Pyrexia (loved this term!) ...I'm a newbie with Pyrexia (loved this term!) and came by it accidentally through inheriting my grandfather's house, which contained my my grandmother's collectables, even though she passed in 1995. A totally new found joy, while it also brings me back and reconnects me with memories if my grandmother. Her pieces, I would never sell, but the treasure hunt of finding new items, learning about patterns and styles, it's all so fun. I still haven't figured out what my faves are and what I want to collect for myself, but in the meantime I am enjoying the pursuit, will sell some in the Spring/Summer at markets, and learn lots along the way. Thanks for the great, informative and super cool blog! :)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13461126632899559519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6761058064933339220.post-52824596020987854192012-01-19T18:14:54.018-08:002012-01-19T18:14:54.018-08:00Thank you for stopping by my blog!

The stamps are not dated but the design did change over the years. Pyrex does not produce these kinds of coloured pieces any longer. Costs at thrift stores, etc vary by region - I have not paid more than $10 for a single piece, usually much less. Pieces are available at antique malls and Ebay but you will pay much much more there - plus 90% of the fun of collecting is the thrill of the hunt.<br /><br />You should start by becoming more familiar with the patterns and shapes that are available. Here are some websites to get you started. There are also a couple of good reference books available. You should know, though, that once you start collecting, it becomes an obsession, referred by addicts as Pyrexia!
