I don't know what the spiral grey on the bottom is made of, so can it go in the microwave, do you know?

I can understand.
If you are talkin...Oh Ouch!!!!!! I can understand.<br /><br />If you are talking about the yellow square shape, then yes.... That is "harvest". The yellow round shaped buffet servers were callled "butterscotch".<br /><br />The model numbers tell you the handle shape, the size in quarts and whether it's a cover or bottom. A P-1-B is a bottom casserole with the original handle that holds 1 quart. A P-3-B should be a 3 quart casserole bottom. A suffix of "C" instead of "B" indicates a cover. The prefix of "A" instead of "P" would mean the piece is post 1972 when they made the handles wider. The detachable is designed different for the "A" models.<br /><br />I hope that helps. Best of luck in your search. :-)Shane T.

My mom was upset ...Thanks for the interesting blog.<br />My mom was upset to have recently broken her vintage Corning P-3-B 1 quart, yellow (harvest?) casserole. I have been searching for a replacement as she so liked the specific shape and size of this piece. All I have been able to find online are several P-1-B casseroles. Can you tell me the difference between these two model numbers? Thanks again.TSPMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01331776173638988138noreply@blogger.com
