Across the Pond With Corningware - Corning in the U.K.

So, I have already posted about the new old Corningware now available in the United States after a decade of "exile", as it were.  During it's absence, Corningware (Pyroflam) was busy "backpacking" through Europe, apparently.  Here are some of the patterns that are currently available as well as a couple of discontinued ones (though I have no specific dates for the discontinued lines from Europe)

All of these pictures are from the World Kitchen UK site.

Kobe
(I believe this is discontinued in the UK)
European Herb
Sakura
(I believe this is discontinued in the UK)
Cool Pansies
Warm Pansies
Lilyville

Pretty Pink
Apricot Grove
(Yep, Still available in the UK)
Hot Dots
(The picture is terrible, but its the only one I can find)






Plum
(discontinued - but available in the Simply Lite line)

Curious about what is available on the "Asia Pacific" site?  There were too many for me to even begin thinking about posting.  So here is the link for both the Classic Cookware line (Square) and the newer shaped Dimensions Cookware line (The shape is the same as both the Pansy designs above and Lilyville)

Where is your Corningware/Pyroflam??

About Town With Corningware - This is Corningware Country

There are actually 3 patterns with "Country" in the name so I decided on doing another multi-pattern post.

I already posted Country Cornflower a while back.....  But I'll include it here too just for continuity.

Country Cornflower
(1988-1993)


Country Cottage
(1997-1998)  

This was made to coordinate with the Corelle pattern and even though the original pyroceramic Corningware was discontinued, the pattern is still available on World Kitchen's new "Simply Lite" Vitrelle bakeware line.

Country Festival 
(1975-1977)

I always found this pattern interesting.... Recently, I noticed that it has a copyright date in the lower right hand corner of 1975.  As far as I know, this is the only pattern with an actual date printed on it.  Ya just gotta love Pennsylvania Dutch tole painting. 

Where is your Corningware??
