I dropped the glass lid of my little glass Pyrex cooking bowl I've
been using literally for years! Shattered it. :-(

I'd like to replace the whole bowl and lid with a comparable set, but
all I can find are glass bowls with plastic lids.

Anyone know where I can get a little 1/2 to 1qt glass bowl with a
glass lid?

Thanks!

Google: 1 qt glass casserole with lid and you'll get lots of choices

Target has a set of three different size glass/glass bowls, which I
*think* are pyrex-equivalent. They often run out, but they've been on
the shelf for at least six months. I keep thinking I need them too
but haven't got them yet.

They also have (I think Rubbermaid) a variety of real Pyrex bowls with
glass/plastic lids.

I always use Ebay for stuff like that. It will likely be used and it might
be expensive but you should be able to find one if you keep looking. Might
have to look for a few weeks.

I have one glass bowl with a glass lid, and it is Pyrex. Corning also might make such a thing.

Thanks! Figures Amazon has the market tied up!

All I could find was plastic lids. Bought a set of 3 Anchor Steam 20oz
glass bowls and glass lids. Hope they are what I'm looking for.

Since Pyrex was taken over by World Kitchen it hasn't been the same.
Ebay is your alternative, unless you can order it from Europe, where
Newell Rubbermaid owns the plants that prepare the original borosilicate
glass.

Hey, maybe Ophelia could order one for you.

I heard that about Pyrex, and that's a shame.

Yeah I'm scouring Ebay and bumping up against the "I can't bid that
much" limit!

I eschew Big Box stores on principle.

And yes, I've got a couple of bids on Ebay items. Want to bid on more,
would rather do a "buy now" but Ebay is being a PITA for me.

Thanks!

You can probably find "an exact match" for this item on either
"ebay.com" or "craigslist.com". There are millions of people trading
on these websites.

Has anyone heard of Fire-King bakeware? It may have been made by Anchor Hocking.

The past is so murky... they've gone through so many iterations over the
years no one really knows.

I still have Anchor Hocking bakeware I bought 30+ years ago. The shade
was Amber. I bought a couple of sizes including one perfect for lasagna
that sits in a wicker basket. And yes, it appears Fire King and
Anchor Hocking are related... couldn't say about Pyrex. It's all so
convoluted!

Check your thrift shops, closeout stores etc. Yard sales.
I know how you feel. I broke the bottom of my 1969 Pyrex 2 cup covered set. Had to buy a new Anchor Hocking but not same dimensions. I guess I used that Pyrex about 5 thousand times - it went to work, or stored leftovers every day of its long life.

This is a consignment shop I was in a few days ago. One of the vendors
there has shelf after shelf of pyrex bowls in all shapes and sizes and
a lot of separate lids too.
I suppose if you call them they can put you in touch with the vendor.
Hope this helps.

read the reviews: apparently lots of them are damaged before they hit
the shelves - I was just in the store, and the only one they had also
was full of shards!

Note these are all three the same size, I'm pretty sure that
previously they had a set of three different sizes.

The old bakeware was made from borosilicate glass, the newer stuff is made from something much cheaper.

I know, it's all because of the MalWartization of our manufacturing

Simex sells a set of three (1 liter, 1.5 liter, 2 liter), round bowls
with handles and glass lids, made of borosilicate glass, on Amazon for

The Libbey set isn't borosilicate, which is what the original Pyrex
was made of.

.... which is why I look for older things. One stupid-sounding example:
I got really irritated with the breaking wires on recent egg slicers.
(And I hate the design of the even-more recent ones.) I remembered
that the old egg slicers lasted a long time, so at one point I was out
collecting a few egg slicers. No broken wires since then. And the thin
metal body can be cleaned much more easily than the deep plastic grooves
can be.

We can only look forward to more cr*p products if the TPP (an
expansion of NAFTA) passes. People should be calling their
representatives in congress and the senate to get that thing stopped.

Jean, I have had a problem with egg slicers, but I have to confess that
I was also using them to slice mushrooms.

Mine lasted for years... until I attempted slicing mushrooms with it
and that was the end of my egg slicer.

Well, now I gave glass bowls with glass lids coming out my ears!

I bought 3 very nice little Anchor Hocking bowls from some online
website someone here suggested (thanks!) and two little smalllish
squarish bowls offf Ebay which I will probably never even use!

Thanks RFC!

I use egg slicers for whole strawberries. Really fast and easy. They can be used for anything fairly
soft ...I'm thinking olives, too.
