Extra Photos: Corning Ware 


Wildflower P-83 12 cm (6½") skillet.  It is part of the Menu-ette Set, along with a P-81 (1 pt) saucepan, and a P-82 (1½ pt) saucepan.  A Du-ette set includes a P-83 skillet too, paired with a P-89 (2½ cup) saucepan with a spout.  Menu-ette Sets first appeared in 1965.

Blue Cornflower P-89 (2½ cup) saucepan with a spout, lid not shown.  Although it is practically the same as a P-82, the P-89 was never included in a Menu-ette Set.  It could be purchased individually and it was part of certain large Corning Ware sets too.  In a Du-ette Set, it was combined with a P-83 skillet.  P-89s debuted in 1978 and disappeared about 1985.

Blue Cornflower double boiler set.  The 2 Qt insert fits inside an ordinary square 2½ Qt casserole/saucepan, and both pieces share the same lid.  The set first appeared in 1961.

Wildflower Counter Saver, made of Corning Ware.  Some Counter Savers with Corelle or Pyrex patterns are made of clear glass instead, and have a white plastic coating applied to the back.  Corning Ware glass-ceramic Counter Savers were available in: Blue Cornflower, Floral Bouquet, Spice O' Life, Country Festival, Wildflower, and plain white.

Solid green square casserole/saucepan, 2½ Qt.  It is dark olive green, a deeper colour than the Avocado Round product line.

Solid green, square: Cornflower emblem on the inside, also green.  No details are known about this item, except that it was made in Canada.
