Cornflowers represent abundance, good fortune and wealth. With that sort of symbolism, it is no wonder that the Blue Cornflower pattern came to be Corning Ware's most well-known design...  

{HISTORY}

 A baking staple in kitchens around the world, Corning Glass Works has made heating food in the oven easy since 1915. They first started with Pyrex oven-proof glass dishes in the early 1900s eventually graduating to their beloved Corning Ware brand in the 1950s when they debuted their popular blue cornflower pattern. Designed by a Connecticut ad agency artist named Joseph Baum, Blue Cornflower quickly became the iconic pattern most often associated with the Corning Ware brand.

Available in a wide variety of shapes and sizes these blue and white bakeware dishes became indispensable for home cooks. Fulfilling three purposes in one dish - baking, storing and serving, Corning Ware made a big impact on the mid-century kitchen scene. With their easy stacking abilities, variety of shapes and sizes, multi-function design, and affordable price range, they instantly became treasured kitchen helpers. 

The Corning Ware brand stopped production in 1989 after it was sold to Borden and then renamed World Kitchen Market. Although new versions of the cornflower pattern were reproduced in the 1990s, under the new WKM brand, home cooks continued to prefer vintage versions over brand-new ones. To this day, collectors of this beloved dishware remain loyal to the original production pieces thus creating a strong and steady market. This dish was made between 1966-1969.
