I love this original early 1950s Pyrex Serving Dish with its Original Heating Stand - you place the dish and contents on the little metal stand - and pop a couple of little candles in the two sections below to keep the dish and contents nice and warm. It is a great item for more formal dinner parties, slow eaters etc.
This dish is in an attractive sugar pink colour and with a collectable white daisy pattern around the outside, as photographed. It has its original clear lid. Both sections have the old PYREX mark. This design was made from 1956 - 1961.
It has hardly been used - and the serving dish is in excellent vintage condition - with no signs of use. The metal stand below is in very good excellent condition - there are remnants of old melted candle wax inside the candle's aperture - but have left that in there - so that you could use the heating section right away if you so wished.
It comes with its original cardboard retail box - these rarely survive - it is admittedly slightly tatty on the lid at the top - but it is an old corrugated printed box over 60 years old now. The rare retail box, the attractive colour and the sought-after daisy pattern - plus the lovely condition are all considered in my asking price. Probably more of an item for the specialist pyrex collector. A special piece for a mid-century kitchen.
I have taken lots of images for your inspection.
Dimensions: the dish is 12 3/4 inches x 8 1/2 inches x 3 inches. The stand is 14 1/2 inches handle to handle. At its widest, it is 7 3/4 inches. Height of 3 3/4 inches. This will make it a 1 1/2 Quart Size Dish.
This set is quite heavy and it going to cost £10 to send to you in the UK. This will be with Parcelforce for tracked postage and applied to your order at the checkout.
