The glass lamination process used for Corelle® ware is ideal for making plates and bowls, but it unfortunately does not work well for cup or mug shapes. That's why we offer stoneware mugs with every Corelle® dinnerware set.
Corelle products purchased after 2005 are safe and comply with FDA regulations. Now, if you have any older dishes, that gets a little trickier. You'll want to avoid eating off of older Corelle dinnerware if it shows obvious signs of deterioration; if the glaze is worn, if the paint is melting or chipping, etc.
Butterfly Gold was released as a PYREX Compatibles pattern for the Correlle Dinner Ware pattern of the same name. Butterfly Gold was released twice; once in 1972 and an altered version in 1979.

Pyrex, Corning Ware and Corelle: Enduring Kitchen Icons from Corning. Three brands developed by Corning Glass Works during the 20th century — Pyrex, Corning Ware and Corelle — became household names that revolutionized American kitchens and endured decades of changing consumer tastes and expectations.
Pyrex is made by Corelle Brands, a global housewares company based in Rosemont, IL. Pyrex is a registered trademark of Corning Incorporated, used under license by Corelle Brands, LLC and affiliates in several countries throughout the world, including the US, Canada, Latin America, Southeast Asia and Australia.
CorningWare and Pyrex, both manufactured by the same company, are two frontrunners when it comes to bakeware, but if you have limited space or are shopping on a budget, it can be hard to choose between the two. When choosing a casserole dish, the top pick is CorningWare, for its flexibility, versatility and safety.

Last Updated: Apr 09, 2024 25470. As of 2019, Corelle became a part of Instant Brands. According to the company, Corelleware can become weakened by repeated exposure to the abrasive detergents used in automatic dishwashers.
Corelle Brands LLC promises to replace any glass-ceramic (bowl) cookware item that breaks from hot or cold temperatures within 10 years from date of purchase.
All Corelle products meet the safety standards at the time of manufacturing. “As manufacturing and regulatory practices have evolved, so have Corelle products. We routinely test Corelle products for lead and cadmium contents at internationally recognized, third-party testing laboratories.
Below is information from the Corelle Cusco 16-piece Dinnerware Set: To sum it all up: Corelle manufactures its plates and bowls in its Corning, New York factory. Mugs and stoneware are made in China.
You can use any ovenproof dish or mold in the Airfryer, whether it is made of glass, ceramic, metal or silicone.
In March 2019, Corelle Brands, the makers of Pyrex in the United States, merged with Instant Brands, the makers of the Instant Pot. On June 12, 2023, Instant Brands filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy after high interest rates and waning access to credit hit its cash position and made its debts unsustainable.
Both trademarks were historically used interchangeably in the marketing of kitchenware products made up of both borosilicate and soda-lime glass. However, now Corning has licensed out the use of their PYREX (upper case lettering) and pyrex (lower case lettering) logos to other companies.
If it's all caps “PYREX,” it's vintage, made of borosilicate. If it's lower case “pyrex,” it's new, and it's soda lime.
Corelle is a brand of glassware and dishware. It is made of Vitrelle, a tempered glass product consisting of two types of glass laminated into three layers. It was introduced by Corning Glass Works in 1970, but is now manufactured and sold by Corelle Brands.
Vitrelle glass, the name for the glass used in Corelle Ware, consists of a 3-ply laminate: a thick core glass-enclosed on top and bottom by a much thinner glaze or skin glass. The result is a lightweight durable plate that is carefully designed to inhibit breakage. That durability is achieved in two steps.
“But it is even more perplexing that Centre Lane was able to acquire two-thirds of Corelle for merely $38.5 million in March 2024 and transfer it to Anchor Hocking days later at yet another price ($79.8 million) – all while evading FTC oversight.”
Corelle Brands manufactures products under names such as: Corelle. Corningware. Pyrex.
Corelle Brands (and later, Instant Brands) sells similar looking products under the CorningWare brand name that are made of glazed stoneware, rather than Pyroceram. The packaging for this type of CorningWare bakeware specifically states that they are not for stovetop use.
