Vintage Pyrex: Identify Your Pattern & Find What It’s Worth
If you’ve ever turned over a turquoise bowl at a thrift store and wondered what pattern is this — and what’s it worth?, you’re in the right place. PyrexVault is a free, independent guide to vintage Pyrex: the patterns, the shapes, the model numbers stamped on the bottom of every piece, and the real resale values collectors actually pay.
From the iconic Butterprint (the turquoise farm scene also known as “Amish”) to bright promotional pieces and hard-to-find designs, we cover the patterns people actually hunt for — each with production years, the full list of pieces in the line, and current value ranges based on recent sold listings.
Browse vintage Pyrex by pattern
Every pattern has its own page with the years it was made, the pieces in the set, and what they’re worth today. Start with the most collected:
- Butterprint — turquoise & white farm motif (1957–1968)
- Gooseberry — the pink-and-white (and black-and-white) classic
- Snowflake — the wintry mid-century favorite
- Friendship — birds and tulips in red on white
- Atomic Eyes — a cult mid-century design
- Pink Daisy — soft pink florals
- Town & Country — warm 1960s–70s earth tones
- Spring Blossom Green — the “Crazy Daisy”
- Butterfly Gold — the ubiquitous golden bloom
- Primary Colors — the original nesting mixing-bowl set

Decode the numbers on the bottom
Every piece of vintage Pyrex carries a shape and a model number — a three-digit number like 441 (a small Cinderella bowl) or 475 (a 2.5-quart casserole). Those numbers tell you the exact shape and size, which is the key to knowing what you have and what a complete set looks like. Our Shapes & Model Numbers guide walks through the Cinderella bowls, casseroles, refrigerator dishes, mixing bowls, and more.
What is your Pyrex worth?
Vintage Pyrex value comes down to four things: pattern, condition, completeness, and colorway. A complete, clean set in a sought-after pattern can sell for well over $100, while a single common bowl might bring $15–30. Rare promotional pieces and short-run patterns climb much higher. Every pattern page gives a realistic value range pulled from recent eBay sold listings — not wishful asking prices — so you can buy and sell with confidence. Always check current sold comps before a big purchase.
