PYREX?



This has got to be Pyrex & I just adore this pattern, love it. Although, I am not familiar with the marking on the back - this is truly the common marking for this piece? I don't have a piece of Pyrex marked like this.
Also, this piece isn't smooth like all my others, you can describe it a little bit rough, a likeness to a chalkboard maybe.
Got it from Goodwill.



Linking up THRIFTY THING FRIDAY over at THE THRIFTY GROOVE!

  1. I have that divided dish too but mine has Pyrex Made In The USA on the bottom. Maybe it was made in England. I have a JAJ bowl that has that crown motif.

  2. I do believe it is an English one. I have that same dish, only in blue, and it has that marking on the bottom. Pyrex markings are thin on the ground here in the UK...

  3. It is English Pyrex, I have a gooseberry bowl with the same marking, except it's a darker pink than the North American gooseberry. I posted pictures of it on the Pyrex Collective and I had this confirmed by other members. Nice find!

  5. Interesting that the JAJ Pyrex is in the same pattern as the North American ones. That Snowflake pattern in black is a beauty. Thrifted Treasure had a snowflake one in RED believe it or not. It's as awesome as it sounds.

  6. I love the black with white snowflake pattern, it's so unusual and dramatic. It's funny, with as much as I thrift I rarely see pyrex!

  7. My guess is English Pyrex too. I love the black snowflake patterns and have a few of the pieces. I used them at Christmas and felt ultra cool. Great find!
