In the Wild! Shopping Corningware Patterns & Revealing Marks & Values - Thrift with Me Dr. Lori

Join me, Ph.D. Antiques Appraiser Dr. Lori, in the wild as I go #shopping for #vintage Corningware patterns, revealing marks and telling you the values people really pay for Corningware pieces based on actual sales. Watch me find, identify and value Cornflower Blue, Spice of Life or La Marjolaine, Wildflowers, and French White patterns.
See what to spot on pieces as I find a good price on a Corningware tea pot. Plus, don't be confused by a popular pattern made by both Corelle and Corningware and see a 1970s percolator coffee pot. All this and more during my #thrifting trip in Winter Park, Florida near Orlando, FL at the Orange Tree Antiques Mall.

Dr Lori, You are NOT boring! You're funny and I never get tired of watching you!

[@DrLoriV]

Thank you so much.

Some of that Corning Ware is in perfect condition and it reminds me of my mother. For Christmas one year I bought her a new nighty and housecoat. I stopped over early one morning to have coffee with her and she answered the door wearing her worn thin ratty old nightgown. I asked her if she didn’t like the set I bought her and she replied “I’m saving it for good”. Maybe a lot of those corning ware pieces were only used for special (good) occasions. Thanks Dr Lori, I learn something every time - lip and dip = 80’s.

[@angiejenkins520]

I think we had the same mom. I made my mom some new aprons once and she refused to wear them...said they were “for good.” I asked her for where...church???? That got her laughing.

[@FleaMarketJohn]

I like the comparison dating of the different designs of Corning Ware. Thank you.

[@DrLoriV]

Yes, you are welcome. My content here is offered to explain about context and cultural imagery of certain eras. Glad it helped.

[@heidibourscheidt4283]

Dr. Lori I just love watching you! I also collect the CorningWare French White. It’s definitely my favorite! Growing up in the 70’s my mom had the entire Blue Cornflower set, she used them in the oven, on the stove. We had the flat top stove. She had all the lids, handles, coffee pot, you name it she had it. Lol I also collect the Heritage White Pflatzgraff…I would love to see a video on that pattern. ❤

[@Narbyful]

Looking at that collection/table was like being in my family kitchen in the 70s. My mom used the little tea pot. She'd make it full for when my uncle stopped in, and he would drink most of it as he had tea, with sugar and milk. I got my Pyrex as wedding gifts in 1987, and it's all still going strong, including some French White. :)

[@brendablake5447]

Love you and your knowledge Dr Lori

[@DrLoriV]

love you back.

[@Toomanydogs7]

I love the French Country Corner ware. I have the whole set.... With the lids and also the plastic lids to seal it so you can put it in the refrigerator... My New Jersey grandma gave me those and I just cherish them. ❤

[@terrizimmerman5297]

We owned The Wildflower pattern in both Corning and Corelle since our 1980 wedding. We recently gave it all to our son. We were finally ready to let them be enjoyed by two more generations.

[@lindabruns6020]

I gave my oldest son my Cornflower Blue (shower gifts from 1971) set when another son gifted me the French White.

[@kathyressler4764]

Corningware is so nice to cook with. We are still using ours, for the past 20 plus years, that was passed down to us. Great video.

[@lindacarter6332]

I love learning from you. Thank you so much for all that you do! 💝😊

[@theresaward6021]

I love the French White too.

[@karenwalker1255]

Dr. Lori, the French White has always been my favorite too! It's such a classy design. I have several pieces. It's good to see you. 👋💌

[@DrLoriV]

I think so too.

[@maurad5378]

French white is my favorite too!

[@rdbwdc774]

[@lesliereynolds4492]

You are so appreciated Dr.Lori. Just spent a day in a huge antique mall in Carson, NV. and you’re answering my questions.

[@DrLoriV]

YAY. I love to hear this. Thanks for watching all my videos and sharing my videos with others. I appreciate the subbing too.

[@LindaBryant-s4i]

I have the twelve cup percolator that was given me as a wedding gift in 1963!

[@DrLoriV]

Wow. Awesome. My Mom had the little teapot.

[@royettabayer9660]

I also have the Corning percolator, was hubby's grandma's, we still use it daily, love perc coffee in that pot!

[@johannamarsh8464]

[@rebeccadavis2564]

I'm 32 and I collect corning ware!! I love your videos and didn't want it to end 😢 I truly appreciate the info!!!

[@DrLoriV]

There are almost 1000 videos on my channel and boy I love to hear that you young collectors are having fun finding cool vintage stuff and are watching my vids. Thanks.

[@gaylemamabutterfly]

I inherited a casserole that my mother got maybe 1958/59. It was gifted to her by her sister for helping to strip off wallpaper and helping with her sister's kids. Nice eh! I'm still using it and it looks like new. I use it a lot. Lid broken years ago. Love your show. Take care.

[@shereesheree7735]

Pyrex, Corning Ware, Corelle, Fire King, etc., are what I am into!! I would be broke as a bad joke if I lived back wast where it seems those 'dishes' are everywhere. I am still working on getting you out to the West Coast to see us, Dr. Lori. Appreciate all you do!🫶👍💯😁

[@DrLoriV]

I'll be there. Many groups, events, producers host my Antiques Appraisal Comedy Show.

[@sharonrocha7791]

Great video as always , Dr. Lori ! Hope you are well ? You are certainly not boring ! You are entertaining & informative ! I have a Mish- mash of corning ware & the French white is very classy ! It goes with everything ! Thanks for sharing your knowledge as always! Xox 💚

[@KittenPusher]

Thank you. Such helpful info!

[@kellyr6274]

Oh i have so much Corningware of my Mom's but my brother accidentally broke a few pieces one Thanksgiving taking some out of the cupboard 😒. You're not boring to me Dr. Lori! Ty for your videos 😀🤗

[@DrLoriV]

Thanks so much. Sorry about the Thanksgiving cupboard accident.

[@Gloria-qy3dd]

Love your sense of humor but most of all your knowledge. ❤

[@DrLoriV]

Thanks for watching. Remember to share the vids.

[@annawood2532]

I think one reason we younger people are interested in the older kitchen pieces is because we can’t get many quality, USA made items for a good price any more. A lot of manufacturing left the US a few decades ago, so it’s something we appreciate because we’re experiencing the shortage of quality. Also, a lot of us are learning how much we enjoy being home with our family, and that definitely necessitates spending time in the kitchen. I think the older dishes are a bit of a symbol that we’re trying to restore something that was lost in the generations before us.

[@cindybyrne4228]

Ditto regarding the tea and coffee as I am a resident of northeastern PA. Thank you for this video Dr. Lori!

[@DrLoriV]

I love NEPA. I appeared on Home and Backyard on WNEP 16 for years. It is a fabulous part of the country.

[@tumbleweed7283]

Fabulous 🎉thank you

[@JustLikeSisterRaySays]

Hi @DR Lori. Glad you are back this week! Busy, busy.~ I want to make a request, that you possibly do some more 2-D and 3-D art segments please. I wanted to also mention that I read something very disconcerting today when online. It was an advert-post from so-and-so 'estate' sales. In the post, there was an object for consideration, and it is a nice piece. Yet, someone simply commented, "I have one just like that. Value?" -It was said with great indelicacy.... I thought that both this sort of behavior would make for a good 'Rants and Raves' segments- on two points mentioned here. Thanks!~

[@DrLoriV]

I am always here. Thanks for watching. I have so many rants and raves but always like suggestions.

[@JustLikeSisterRaySays]

👍😺

[@olgashmidt4992]

NICE TOO SEE YOU AGAIN 🥰

[@jaclynnrapp9086]

I love quiche!! Basic egg, ham, and cheese. My mom makes it and I started making it! Super easy. I put mine in older Pyrex pie plates I found thrifting!

[@daffodilrose1950]

Received my Corning Ware percolator coffee pot as a wedding gift in 1969……I still have it and use it regularly! It makes the best coffee! I think I better think twice about taking it camping with me….now that I know the price of it!

[@DrLoriV]

Sounds great!

[@barbaramelone1043]

I currently have the Gemco vinegar cruet and the salt and pepper shakers in the Spice of Life pattern. I also have a square casserole in that pattern, and a teapot in Cornflower Blue.

[@churchcarole]

Just found you and have been obsessed! Thanks for all your wisdom!

[@DrLoriV]

Welcome!!

[@rebeccaroth563]

Percolator is the best coffee

[@lennybuttz2162]

My mom had that tea pot but it had the cornflowers on it. She also had several of the French White but she bought hers when they first came out and I would swear that was in the 80s? I still have the quiche and souffle dishes.

[@norajones8725]

I love your videos you really knows your stuff!!!

[@DrLoriV]

Thanks for watching. Happy to share my info with you. My classes are fun too.

[@judymelchert3966]

I remember my Spice of Life casserole dishes in my hope chest in 1972. I think we all had the same things in there..

[@DrLoriV]

I guess so. If you read the other comments you'll see that many people had similar pieces.

[@monaquinney]

Dr Lori I have that same coffee pot

[@kellyhazen3994]

I have all the French White, it’s my favorite!!

[@kimberlyheibel8759]

I have a lot of white Corning Ware. I also purchased the small storage containers with the blue Corning Ware color on it. I use them a lot. I do have one of the tea pots as well.

[@DrLoriV]

That is awesome!

[@joanwatson9178]

You are the best!

[@DrLoriV]

Thank you for watching. Don't forget to check out my website events and info.

[@deb7518]

Had many, many meals out of my mother's large Cornflower 'Dutch Oven' piece, I'm pretty sure that piece was from the 60s. She had several other pieces, too. Great info here, Thanks!

[@DrLoriV]

Very cool

[@tomsparks6099]

I have a few French white pieces of Corning I picked up years ago (somewhere). I love them, use them. I have little ones for Creme Brulee or individual tarts.

[@chriskeesling7]

My daughters love love love thrifting and sustainable shopping. they purchase home goods and love the older quality, 27 29 yolds

[@DrLoriV]

That is so great. Smart gals, your daughters. I think that is so important... sustainability, thinking for the future of our planet, and having fun thrifting. All fun!

[@brendabunnell6759]

I also love the French white corning. I have a few pieces.

[@DrLoriV]

I love the French white corning ware /pyrex. Classic and it matches everything.

[@JeanStAubin-nl9uo]

I had no idea that Corning Ware was collectible. A twenty year old piece is considered vintage? Wow, I'm an old fart. Thank you for educating me.

[@grand_vacation]

Btw I hope your event in Texas this weekend went well

[@DrLoriV]

It rocked! Had a great time, SRO crowds, and tons of fun. Hope you'll join me at another event when I appear near you.

[@Qwenique4u]

Thanks!😊

[@DrLoriV]

Thank you!!

[@carolplante]

Dr Lori, all my Corningware is the French White,too! Lol

[@DrLoriV]

I really love my French white. It is classic and used almost every day.

[@beanieduchet2928]

I still have my Spice O' Life set i use it every day!

[@DrLoriV]

Many people use these pieces of cookware and ovenware. Classic, stylish, and durable.

[@beanieduchet2928]

@DrLoriV my bestie used to tease me about my old kitchenware. Now she likes it, calls it " vintage " 😃

[@isoldelippens6670]

I love my French White quiche dish. Love quiche. I still use mina a lot.

[@DrLoriV]

Me too.

[@sunnycadwallader2873]

Ugggggggh! I had 2 of those percolators and gave them away when I moved!!

[@DrLoriV]

That happens too often. Sorry.

[@Elisa-dl3ii]

Did the Percolator have the black plastic stand?

[@pueblodove]

my lid on the tea pot is all metal. I have the same one. I also have the cornflower coffee pot@

[@jillf3042]

I love your videos and yes, I’m 35 and was just telling my mom I want all the vintage Pyrex, Corning ware, and Corelle dishes.. what set me off into wanting the vintage stuff is just better quality.. I received a set of new dishes two years ago for Xmas and they’re terrible! I’ll be washing or drying them and they’ll just snap in half in my hands. I’m sick and tired of my bakeware flaking and having to throw it out and buy new every 6+ years.. I have three children and I’m starting to be more strict on what comes in to our house as far as toys too. I want stuff that’s going to last and not cheap plastic toys that break after a few uses. If that means I have to pay more for quality items, then I’ll do it but I’m just so sick and tired of how everything is made so cheap now.

[@DrLoriV]

I'm so glad you recognize quality and are collecting the good stuff. Good for you.

[@leeannmettlach2412]

I hadn’t really thought about the Corelle vs Corning Ware till I saw this. I knew a woman that had the Spice of Life in both & was kind of wowed by her complete 🥰collection. I only have the Corning Ware. 2 different makers….I knew, but didn’t really know - I learn something new every time I watch. Sorry. I know I probably didn’t get the proper names/spellings right.

[@DrLoriV]

Glad to give you some new info.

[@lesliereynolds4492]

I never knew about the Corning and correll ware having the same pattern. I remember that pattern everywhere back then. I really liked it. Not caring about those mostly brown patterns. I bought a pretty pattern small rectangle Corning baker so my daughter had something to use in her large counter top oven. She loves it so I’ve been on the lookout for others that fit her oven.

[@joannlessner1551]

I have several corning ware teapots and have never seen that lid. Black? Mine are all silver and have the wire spring to hold them on. Got the Spice of Life new in 1982 and others at yard sales. Is the black lid later or a replacement?

[@DrLoriV]

Good question to ask during my next Ask Dr. Lori LIVE video so I can answer in detail and teach everyone watching. Check my website for the next date.

[@royalt3690]

Doc, when are you coming to Cali?

[@DrLoriV]

Check the schedule on my website :)

[@cshell9137]

Sweet! I've got the percolator in very good condition that I wouldn't miss! But my 1989 Corning Ware quiche dish is staying with me! Thanks for the info!

[@debluetailfly]

I have some extra lids, but it is hard to match up people who need a lid.

[@DrLoriV]

Oh please. There are so many buyers out there for lids. Don’t give up before you start.

[@JillMullins-k4b]

I have corning ware has a looks like apples yellow withcherries andblueberries says corning ware when were these made?

[@DrLoriV]

I can help! Need to see your pieces to verify what you really have. Many factors affect value. Check out my website for the ways that you can show me your pieces.

[@bettyboop6292]

FRENCH WHITE..Please discribe..

[@Mildred-h2c]

Love you Dr. Lori but can we move on something else. Love to hear more about what's selling than corningware.

[@DrLoriV]
