About Town With Corningware - Oh, Rose Marie, I Love You

Actually, the pattern name is Rosemarie, all one word... But the Slim Whitman song keeps going through my head, so I had to use it in the title, to make it go away.  LOL

Rosemarie was available from 1995-1998....   The point in time when Corning was releasing pattern after pattern in order to boost sales.  It's fairly rare, though not as rare as some other patterns that were only produced for 1 year.   It almost looks like tulips, but I think it's stylized Rosemary.... Thus the name. 

True, the rosemary we normally see has blue flowers.....

but there are several pink Rosemary varieties... Rosmarinus officinalis 'Roseus"

and Pendent Rosemary

and Majorca Rosemary

What do you think?

Where is your Corningware??

About Town With Corningware - A Tale of Two Lips

The Tulip seems to be a recurring theme in Corningware patterns.  Here are the two that I know of.

Fresh Cut

(1997-1998)

Lyrics

(1995-1996)

I will admit, that Country Festival and Rosemarie could potentially be added to this grouping, but Country Festival is more of a Pennsylvania Dutch Tole Painted Design that just happens to have a tulip in it as well as blue birds.  Rosemarie looks kind of like a garland of tulips, but it could also be a pink harebells but I am pretty sure it stylized Rosemary (which does come in pink as well as blue varieties).  Thus the very name. 

Where is your Corningware??
