This Corning Ware casserole comes from the rare Renaissance pattern, a limited edition gift line introduced around 1970. The intricate black-and-white illustration, adapted from a 17th-century engraving of Stockholm’s seaport by Erik Dahlbergh in Suecia Antiqua et Hodierna, gives this piece an elegant European character that distinguishes it from everyday Corning Ware designs.

Made of Corning’s durable Pyroceram glass-ceramic, the P-34-B 4 quart dish offers both beauty and functionality, capable of going from freezer to stovetop to oven. Collectors particularly prize examples that retain their original pebbled glass lids, which were produced specifically for the gift line series

This is not your everyday Corning Ware. Produced only briefly in 1970 as part of the exclusive Renaissance Gift Line, this casserole is one of the most sought-after patterns ever created by Corning. The striking black-on-white scene is taken from a 17th-century engraving of Stockholm’s bustling harbor by Erik Dahlbergh, featured in Suecia Antiqua et Hodierna.

Unlike the more common floral designs, the Renaissance line was marketed as a premium collection and saw very limited production, making surviving pieces scarce. At 1¾ quarts, this dish is both display-worthy and functional, with the original clear lid completing the set.

For collectors of rare Corning Ware, this piece represents a true gem — a museum-quality addition that showcases history, artistry, and craftsmanship in one.

This exquisite casserole represents one of the most elegant offerings in Corning Ware’s Limited Edition Gift Line, produced around 1966. The ornate silver-scroll design—aptly named “Platinum Filigree”—wraps gracefully around the creamy Pyroceram body, catching light with its refined detailing and offering a timeless, sophisticated look. 

Marked on the bottom as P‑440‑B, this 2½-quart size was part of the “Royal Buffet” set, originally sold with a candle-warming base for luxurious table presentation. Only a very limited number were ever made, making surviving examples especially coveted among collectors of mid-century Corning Ware. 

At a generous 2½-quart capacity, this piece blends function and artistry, ideal for everything from elegant serving to display. If you value rarity, craftsmanship, and mid-century design, this Platinum Filigree dish is truly a standout.

This rare and collectible Corning Ware Blue Heather casserole is a standout from the early 1970s. The Blue Heather pattern, with its delicate clusters of blue blossoms and subtle green vines, was designed to bring a sense of calm and charm into the kitchen. Unlike some of the longer-running Corning patterns, Blue Heather was only produced for a limited time, making surviving pieces harder to find today.

This particular dish, the DC-2½-B 2½-quart size, comes complete with its original Pyrex glass lid. Crafted of Corning’s famous Pyroceram, it’s safe for the oven, microwave, and range, while also remaining highly resistant to stains and chips. Collectors prize this pattern not only for its beauty but also for its relative scarcity compared to classics like Cornflower Blue.

Whether you’re looking to complete a vintage set or add a truly charming piece to your collection, this Blue Heather casserole is both practical and highly desirable.
