I broke my 3qt and really miss it. I've looked at them on eBay but they're ridiculously expensive. I bought one from Corning. It's very attractive but don't like the shape of it.

I have my aunts original cornflower blue loaf pan. It's one of my favorite kitchen items. Also have a set of the original french white casseroles and a few spice of life with the glass lids. Love corning ware!

I have 4 small blue corn flower square casserole dishes with all the glass tops and a few of the original snap on plastic lids. Those lids look scratchy and cloudy but still fit great. NI use them all the time. I also have a 3qt. I had one tiny one (like for jello ) and I think I threw it out last time I cleared my kitchen out, along with the cornflower coffee pot that I burned. It looked brown and yucky and I couldn't get it clean. I had to let it go because it was annoying me and reminding me how forgetful I was.

I also have a couple of pieces in the Calloway pattern. White with a sprig of ivy vines.

I am always on the lookout for Corningware at any flea markets, garage sales or estate sales I go to.

@ECBG It's long gone in the trash. I just want the tall 3qt square shape. Dont even care what the pattern is. Don't need a lid.

@ECBG I just found one on eBay. French white, free shipping $20.

I have the following.....

One large & one small

1 teeny tiny pot - I use to melt my popcorn butter

One 5qt pot

I purchased the pots off of Ebay when it was in its infancy. It was my first & last bidding auction. I won the bid for $11. I was so happy because Corning stopped making the "see throughs."

I purchased the cassaroles bowls from K-Mart the final year Corning stopped making the "see throughs."

@Kachina624 I bet that "after the epidemic", the thrifts will be loaded with them.....since so many people are cleaning house.

My local weather report is saying highs up to 118° this weekend. I'm going out to buy ice cream as soon as Kroger opens at 6 (!!!!!) di

I've got mine, my ma's, and even a huge casserole on an electric base from my grandma. I "eat out of the pot".........so that's ALL I've been using lately.......

I have one smaller French White casserole dish that I picked up at a thrift store several years ago. My 84 year old mom still has a blue Cornflower dish that's square and has taller sides. I'm not sure what it really is but it resembles a smaller stock pot/dutch oven that is square instead of round.

@Mz iMac : I got those pots for my bridal shower in 1985! Still remember who gifted me: my SIL's mom.

I loved them because they go on the stove and in the oven and microwave and you can see when the water is boiling, rice is cooked, etc. Only downside is that over time I dropped pieces and they broke. I have always found replacements at thrift stores for these and the OG Corningware casseroles, all of which are in my kitchen.

I also have a few of the French White pieces and often gift them for bridal showers. They go in the oven, microwave and now Instant Pot.

@queendiva

I don't know why Corning stopped making the "see throughs." I love them because you don't have to run into the kitchen, take the tops off, to check your food. Just look across the room. YUP! It's boiling. YUP! Time to stir, YUP! It's done.

You might also check thrift shops (if they're open). My Aunt managed her church's thrift shop for years and much of their merchandise came from estates. I was always surprised at the variety of merchandise and at the low prices.

I love my Corningware pie pans. I have quite a few of them because they were so hard to find for awhile. I bought them at flea markets, garage sales, and estate sales. I also have a good collection of casserole dishes. Best products ever!

You might try your local antique malls. Probably a bit more expensive, though. Corningware and Pyrex are coming out of the woodwork at our local auctions.
