This vintage Pyrex Amish Butterprint casserole dish, produced between 1957 and 1968, is a must-have for collectors and mid-century kitchenware enthusiasts. The charming turquoise-on-white pattern, also known as “Amish”, features an idyllic farm scene with an Amish couple, roosters, and crops, symbolizing the simple beauty of rural life. This design was among the first to debut on Pyrex’s Cinderella mixing bowls and was later applied to various casserole dishes and refrigerator sets.
Crafted from durable borosilicate glass, this 1-pint (471) casserole dish comes with its original clear glass lid (470-018), making it perfect for both display and practical use. Unlike modern Pyrex, which is made of soda-lime glass, vintage Pyrex was known for its superior heat resistance and durability. This pattern remains one of the most sought-after designs, beloved for its nostalgic charm and vibrant color.
Whether you’re a vintage kitchenware collector, a fan of farmhouse decor, or simply looking for a piece of history for your home, this Butterprint dish will add retro charm to any setting.
