Antique Kitchenware Americana Appraisal

Pyrex Cinderella Bowl 'Homestead' / 'Americana' Pattern (Brown with Gold Print)

This is a vintage Pyrex Cinderella Bowl, likely from the late 1960s to early 1970s, featuring the 'Homestead' or 'Americana' pattern in gold on a dark brown (often referred to as 'Burnt Orange' or 'Brown') opaque glass finish. The bowl is of considerable size, consistent with a casserole or mixing bowl, and comes with a clear glass lid. The primary distinguishing feature is the wrap-around gold decal pattern, which includes various stylized Americana motifs such as an eagle, ears of corn, a coffee grinder, a mortar and pestle, a spirit level (or a plumb bob), a bushel or basket, and possibly a lamp or bottle, all rendered in a somewhat folk-art style. The gold pattern shows some wear, particularly along the rim and possibly in some areas of the design, indicating regular use and washing over the years. The rich brown color of the bowl appears largely consistent, though minor scuffs or scratches typical of vintage kitchenware might be present upon closer inspection. The clear glass lid has a prominent lip or rim designed to fit snugly over the bowl, and it appears to be in good condition, free from obvious chips or cracks, although minor surface scratches are possible. Pyrex items are well-known for their durable borosilicate glass construction, making them suitable for oven and freezer use, reflecting good quality craftsmanship. The handles are integrated into the design, characteristic of the Cinderella bowl style, with one side having a larger pour spout and handle for ease of use.
