"Avid collectors of vintage cookware scour thrift stores and online "replacement parts" venues for that once-in-a-lifetime chance to find rare, collectable pieces. The thrill of the hunt, an affinity for 1960s style, or a major wash of nostalgia, inevitably leads to the world of Pyrex. Alternatively branded as Corning or Corelle, depending on the decade, these dishes indisputably reigned in American kitchens of yesteryear. One particular pattern, though once common, is now considered very collectible: the Pyrex Daisy collection, also known as Golden Sunflower Daisy."
"Designed by Cynthia S. Gerow and produced from 1968 through 1973, Daisy pieces feature bold shades of orange and yellow with oversized daisy motifs on either the lids or on the body, based on the type of piece and when it was produced. The Daisy line was released as part of the Pyrex promotional pattern series and some pieces included wicker baskets."
Pyrex Daisy, also called Golden Sunflower Daisy, was produced from 1968 through 1973 and features bold orange and yellow colors with oversized daisy motifs on lids or bodies. Cynthia S. Gerow designed the line, which was part of Pyrex promotional patterns and sometimes included wicker baskets. Individual pieces originally retailed for about $5 to $6. Today condition, rarity, and presence of lids drive collector value, with rare sets reportedly selling for over $5,000 while many listings reflect lower prices due to imperfections or missing parts. Backstamps and pattern placement can help date and identify pieces.
