Pyrex Pattern Identification Guide! (Part 2)

You may remember that a little while ago we made a Pyrex Pattern Identification Guide, but we obviously didn't come close to covering every pattern out there, so today we figured that we would try to fill you in on a few more cute prints! So without further ado, here is the second part of our guide to knowing what's on your pyrex for your educational enjoyment:

1. "Autumn Harvest."
Colors: found in several rust tones.
Introduced in 1979.

2. "Crazy Daisy."
Colors: also found in avocado green on white.
Introduced in the 1960's.
Often confused with the "Spring Blossom" pattern.

3. "Constellation."
Colors: found in yellow on white.
Introduced in 1959 as a promotional item.

4. "Woodland."
Colors: found in shades of brown.
Introduced in the 1960's.

5. "Balloon." Cinderella bowls.
Colors: found in turquoise. Used for chip & dip sets.
Introduced in 1958.

6. "Black Tulip."
Colors: found in black and white.
Introduced as a promotional item over Christmas in 1957.

7. "Bride's Casserole."
Colors: white and pale green.
Introduced as a promotional item in 1961.

8. "Town and Country."
Colors: found in several color combinations.
Introduced in 1964.

9. "Verde."
This pattern is found on lids. Bases and bowls are solid colored.
Introduced in the 1960's.

10. "Forest Fancies."
Colors: shades of dark and light brown.
Introduced in 1981.

There are still so many other cute pyrex patterns out there, so who knows, we may be making a part 3 in the future...

  2. That's one of the things that is so exciting about Pyrex to me. You think you've seen all of the patterns and then Pow! a pattern that you've never seen before. Lots of patterns were put out overseas that we didn't get here in America too.

  7. Wow! I can't begin to tell you how awesome you guys are right now! I found the crazy daisy print in a thrift shop not too long ago and I fell in love with it. I didn't know the name of it at the time, but I figured it out a little while later. I love all of these prints too! Thank you for sharing!

  11. I really love the Town and Country! Thanks for this. I have a lot of Pyrex, but don't know much about it. I just pick it up when it's affordable and pretty. :)
