Corning Pyroceram*R Cookware

Author: Debbie Coe
Publisher: Schiffer Publishing
ISBN: 9780764331398
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 0

Book Description
The first reference book to provide a detailed account of the Pyroceram(R) cookware, developed at Corning by Donald Stookey and marketed in 1958. This special Pyroceram(R) material was first used on military missile nose cones, and because of its durability, it was felt to be a great medium for the kitchen, too. Easily taken from the freezer, used in the oven, microwave, or on the range, it was beautiful enough to be served at the table. After a meal, it went straight to the dishwasher. The cookware saved many steps for the consumer. 60 plus patterns are listed and shown in over 400 colour photographs. Reprints of catalogues, brochures, and historical material, and a detailed bibliography provide much additional information. All information was carefully compiled from original catalogues and reprints, company brochures, trade journals, company advertising, auction lists, eBay, and the shared extensive experience of many dedicated dealers and collectors. An index gives easy access to material.

Jadite

Publisher: Schiffer Publishing
ISBN: 9780764310911
Category : Depression glass
Languages : en
Pages : 0

Book Description
Many books have been written on Depression Era kitchenware and dinnerware, yet none have focused on the mass-produced opaque green glassware known as jadite. This book attempts to bring together the works of the three major glass companies that produced jadite: McKee, Jeannette, and Anchor Hocking. Produced from the early 1930s until the mid-1970s, jadite has rapidly become one of today's hottest collectibles. In addition to numerous dinnerware patterns, all sorts of jadite kitchenware was produced, including canisters, shakers, mixing bowls, and ovenware. Jadite items were also made for the rest of the home, including lamps, bathroom items, and ashtrays. The authors have produced a book which identifies over a thousand jadite pieces with more than 500 photos and current values.
