Cinderella

Retro Pyrex comes in all shapes and sizes but my absolute favourite shape is the "Cinderella" bowl, these are beautiful round bowls with a large lip on one side for holding and a smaller one on the other side for pouring. They are really practical as well as being gorgeous, here's my little collection...


And for anyone else out there who loves a gratuitous "stack of pyrex" photo as much as I do, may I present...

The Leaning Tower of Pyrex!

That's a great assortment of patterns! Which one is your favorite?

LOVE!

You have a turquoise Gooseberry too. Seeing stacked Pyrex is quite fun, especially when it's the nice colours.

Like your collection.

Fabulous! These are all in such great condition - they were definitely hand-washed. I just picked up a slew of Butterfly Gold pieces at an estate sale this weekend - fun!

And what a collection it is! I love your Leaning Tower of Pyrex!
I have two sets of cinderella bowls that I use all the time. One is orange with daisies, just like yours and the other set is Spring Blossom (I think) white on green. This one is really kind-of cool, because it is the same as the set I grew up with, which my Mum still uses today. I love your pink Gooseberries.

Thanks everyone! Bronwen I think my favourites are the pink and the turquoise gooseberry. I'm still hoping to find turquoise butterprint and balloons bowls, they're top of my wishlist :-)

Oh my!
I am a lover of Pyrex myself but haven't quite reached the heights of your collection.
Just found your blog so having a good catch up. Love it!
