Cornflower Bakeware by CorningWare
One of the most recognized CorningWare emblems, the Cornflower bakeware collection features three
cornflowers surrounded by leaves. Pyroceram, a glass-ceramic heated material was originally developed by Corning in the
1950's to be used in rocket nose cones. Further development to kitchen products resulted in CorningWare cookware, which
made its debut in 1958. It was hailed as a new space-age cookware material virtually impervious to temperature extremes.
Originally targeted toward working women who wanted to cook, set an attractive table, and get out of the kitchen fast
— with as little clean up as possible, this durable break and chip resistant glass cookware and bakeware is as
relevant today as it was 50 years ago. Safe for use in the microwave, broiler, oven, stovetop, refrigerator, freezer
and as a beautiful tabletop serving dish. Is this your grandmother's CorningWare? Yes!
CorningWare introduced a contemporary collection of Cornflower to celebrate its
60th Anniversary. The iconic cornflower also appears on
Corelle Blue
Cornflower dinnerware, as well as on CorningWare's Centura Cornflower dinnerware pattern that was
produced from 1957 to 1988.
The CorningWare Cornflower pattern was produced from 1958 to 1988, and was temporarily brought back from
2012 to 2021. If you need replacement or additional pieces for your CorningWare Cornflower collection, monitor this page
on a weekly basis for new listings.

Eventually, your item should show up for sale.
When it comes to finding CorningWare that is difficult to find in stores near you, one of your best
resources for acquiring the items you want are sites like Amazon, Etsy, Replacements and eBay, where there are a lot of wonderful
finds still in the original boxes. We all receive those odd items as gifts that we have no need for and never use.
Yet, one person's junk could be exactly the treasure you want.
Please Note: Not all CorningWare is
safe for use in the microwave. While the majority of CorningWare bakeware is microwave-safe, older
CorningWare dinnerware patterns and patterns with gold or platinum decorations should not be used
in a microwave because microwaves can not pass through metal. If in doubt, use this simple test:
Is this Utensil Safe for the Microwave?
I am thrilled! There are many more recipes then I expected. I am very excited since my husband often works late and I end up with sandwiches rather then making myself something to eat.. —Barbara Andersen, New York
