Corning Ware P-41 Petite Pan

This item is a vintage Corning Ware 'Petite Pan,' specifically model P-41, identified by the blue text marking on its underside. It is constructed from a white, opaque ceramic-glass material, characteristic of Corning Ware's heat-resistant pyroceram. The pan has a square shape with gently rounded corners and features small, integrated handles on two opposing sides, suggesting it's designed for individual servings or small baked goods. The design on the side of the pan appears to be the 'Cornflower' pattern, a classic blue floral motif that is iconic to the early Corning Ware collections. The base of the pan clearly displays the 'CORNING WARE' logo, 'P-41', 'PETITE PAN', and 'MADE IN U.S.A.' in a signature blue font. This manufacturing information indicates its origin and model number. In terms of condition, there is a noticeable yellow-brown discoloration or stain on one side of the white exterior, consistent with food residue or prolonged use, which is a common form of wear for cookware of this age. The overall glaze appears intact, but the discoloration suggests that it has been used. The item likely dates from the mid-20th century, given the typical production period for Cornflower patterned Corning Ware. It represents a durable and functional piece of kitchenware known for its versatility from freezer to oven to table.
