Pink and Gold

I was taking a break from Pyrex-ing. Then my Mom sends me a link to a Craigs List ad, a full set of pink gooseberry cinderella bowls for $10. It took me a couple days to get in touch with the seller. My Mom went and picked them up for me because they are on her side of town ( Which with Las Vegas is a 40 minute deal ). She said the woman got them as a wedding gift in 1957. They are in amazing shape besides a scuff on the 442.


For no reason I mixed them with my black and white.


Our ( my Hubby and I )  good friend's Mom got this for me out of the blue. BG 933 :D

  1. Love that Butterfly Gold - I don't often see pans like that - I have a lime green one, maybe I'll find another one some day....

    1. I know, it's amazing. She just said she had some "gold pyrex" for me. When I saw it I flipped.

    1. Yes it is and yes it was. Those are my favorite types of people to buy from. Who really loved it and are letting it go cheaply to a nice home. :)

  4. So, you weren't hunting for Pyrex but it was apparently hunting for you! I love it!

  5. What a great find! And since you asked about our weekend, this weekend I went to two stores in my town and got a Pyrex haul. I just started collecting. I found a 1 pt. Butterfly Gold, the complete set of four (440-444?) Shenendoah Cinderella bowls, and a faded Spring Blossom Cinderella bowl 442, plus a few pieces of Corning Ware, which I also collect. I'm new to Pyrex collecting but now I'm hooked.
