Before Corelle® Vitrelle® glass dinnerware leaves the factory, they are sprayed with an organic, non-toxic silicone based coating to help prevent damage during shipping.

With any Corelle® dinnerware we recommend washing it with detergent and hot water before using, or runing it through a dishwasher cycle.

We are very proud of our Corelle products, which are made of Vitrelle, a tempered glass consisting of glass laminated into three layers. Corelle was first introduced by Corning over 50 years ago and in 2000 started to be manufactured by the company known today as Instant Brands. 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. This testing confirms that our products comply with applicable federal and state safety regulations.

Corelle dinnerware has come in many different patterns over the years since it was first introduced by Corning and continued with Instant Brands, and many vintage/legacy pieces have become cherished collectors’ items. Before 2000, and before tighter lead content safety regulations, a small amount of lead was an ingredient in the decorating process of many household products. Instant Brands has conducted additional testing with an outside laboratory to determine whether vintage Corelle products made before 2000 comply with today’s consumer [your] expectations as to safety and whether it’s ok to use them as everyday dinnerware. The Company selected multiple patterns of vintage Corelle products, dating back to 1978 for testing.

The food surface contact testing was designed to identify whether any small amount of lead that may have existed in pre-2000 manufactured Corelle product leaches from the product in amounts above today’s acceptable lead-safety regulations. The small amount of lead used in decorations pre-2000 was encapsulated in glass before and after the decoration was applied to product and fired to above 750C. The Corelle manufacturing process has always encapsulated decoration in glass, using extremely high processing temperatures to ensure the glass decorations are sealed, which prevents food contact and intentionally decreases the extent of any lead migration to food.

The testing confirms that the vintage products tested comply with current FDA lead-safety regulations – so feel free to use them for everyday dinnerware.

Although Corelle® Vitrelle® glass dinnerware is known for its strength and durability, all glass is breakable. We offer a three-year warranty against breakage, chipping, and staining under normal household use. However, this warranty does not cover accidental breakage from impact.

Because Corelle® Vitrelle® glass dinnerware is known for its strength and durability, metal utensils, silverware, metal dishwasher racks, metal cleaning pads, and stainless steel sinks may leave gray markings when rubbed or drawn across the surface. These gray marks can be removed with a non-abrasive cleaner. We use Bar Keeper's Friend® in our test kitchen, because it works and lends itself to so many other uses!

Currently all of our Vitrelle® glass dinnerware is made from the same white glass so all of the "whites" are exactly the same. The pattern name indicates the shape or set combination:

- Winter Frost White = Round no rim
- Pure White = Square dishes in - Open Stock and Sets (same as Vivid White)
- Vivid White = Square sets (same dishes as Pure White)
- Dazzling White = Round Wide Rim dishes

Yes, this is the same Corelle® Vitrelle® glass dinnerware you have come to know and love. Throughout Corelle® Vitrelle®'s 50+ years our backstamp has changed to reflect the times. Our current backstamp reflects today's clean modern lines while assuring you it is still Corelle(r) Vitrelle(r) Made in the USA. And, if it's Vitrelle(r) glass that means that it is extrememly durable and chip resistant, stacks snuggly, is light weight, microwaveable as well as refrigerator, freezer, dishwasher and preheated conventional oven safe (up to 350*F)

Its great to hear that you like the colors of our Stoneware® dinnerware. Unfortunately, due to manufacturing limitations we currently are unable to manufacture our Vitrelle® glass dinnerware in a solid color with a consistency that meets Corelle®'s high quality standards.

Although non-porous and made from glass, our Corelle® Vitrelle® glass or MilkGlass® dinnerware is not considered Kosher. Additionally, the coating on the Vitrelle® glass dishes contains no known animal products. It is applied before the dinnerware leaves the manufacturing facility to help prevent damage during shipping and warehouse storage. The coating is easily removed by washing the dishes in hot soapy water.

Due to the unique manufacturing process used to form this dinnerware each of your MilkGlass® plates and bowls will have some variation regarding size and shape. This variation gives the dinnerware its characteristic fun and stylish design that is perfect for everyday meals and entertaining at home. 

We appreciate your interest in environmental safety and recycling. Due to the unique manufacturing process, the material for Vitrelle® glass, as well as our Opal/Milk glass, cannot be recycled via household recycling programs but the manufacturer does recycle the glass that doesn’t end up as a finished product.

At Corelle Brands, we want to leave a healthier planet for future generations. Please visit our website for more information about our sustainability initiatives at: https://corporate.instantbrands.com/impact.

We hope this helps. If you have any more questions, please feel free to contact us.

The manufacturing process for making Corelle® Vitrelle® glass dinnerware produces strong, lightweight tableware. However, there may be some visible variance on the rims of the items that is noticeable when the dishes are stacked. Corelle dinnerware may appear to be warped because they fit so snugly together; repositioning them in the cabinet may make it less noticeable. This variance does not affect the performance of the product. 

Corelle® Vitrelle® glass bowls are great to store leftovers and pre-prepped food. We carry covers for:

Our standard 18-ounce cereal bowl (insert link to lid) (measures 6.25" diameter x 2" high)
Our 1-quart Serving bowl (insert link to lid) (measures 8.5"diameter x 2.5" high)

If you are unsure whether a cover will work with your bowl please reach out to us through our Contact Us page (include link) with the measurement of your Corelle(r) Vitrelle(r) bowl and we will be happy to check.

Corelle® MilkGlass®'s unique manufacturing process allows for certain forms, like higher rims, that are not possible with traditional Corelle® Vitrelle® glass. Corelle® MilkGlass® is designed for the way we eat today whether at the table or anywhere around the home.

Although the look is similar, and both are made from pure natural glass, Corelle® MilkGlass® is made from a different type of glass than your traditional Corelle® Vitrelle® glass dinnerware. This allows Corelle® MilkGlass to be made with higher rims designed for the way we eat today whether at the table or anywhere around the home.

Corelle® Stoneware® plates are about 2.5 times heavier than a comparable Vitrelle® glass plate. A Stoneware® 10.5" dinner plate weighs approximately 2lbs vs a Vitrelle® glass dinner plate which weighs approximately .75lb

We appreciate your interest in environmental safety and recycling. The recyled glass used in our Corelle Vitrelle® glass dinnerware comes from our own manufacturing process.

Take the chill off foods before cooking. Remove foods from the refrigerator and allow them to warm slightly (10-15 minutes).

Preheat your pan over medium heat. Test the edge of the pan by tapping it lightly and quickly with your fingers. If it's hot to the touch, it's ready for cooking. Then add about 1 tablespoon of oil or butter and let that get hot. You should hear a sizzle upon placing your food items in the pan.

Turn down the heat! Keep heat at medium to medium-high for frying or sautéing. For simmering and longer stovetop cooking, use low heat. One way to test your pan to see if it's too hot is to do the butter test. Unpeel a stick of butter and coat the inside of your preheated pan. If the butter foams and turns brown, the pan is too hot.

Keep your cookware thoroughly clean, inside and out, for performance as well as appearance. Residue from previous cooking is a common cause of sticking, even on nonstick surfaces. Sometimes hot soapy water does not remove all the oils that build up over time. We recommend cleaning pans periodically with a non-abrasive cleanser.

Condition new pans before use by wiping the surface with a thin coating of shortening or oil. Use medium to low heat for best cooking results. Extremely high temperatures can cause discoloration and shorten the life of any nonstick finish. If higher temperatures are necessary, preheat the pan on medium for a few minutes. Nylon, plastic, wooden or rubber utensils are preferred. Metal utensils may be used with care, but don't cut in the pan.

Dishwashers will not affect the nonstick coating but may affect handles or knobs. Recondition the coating after dishwasher washing by wiping with thin coating of shortening or oil.

Most of our kitchenware products are dishwasher safe. Refer to packaging instructions to verify that an item is labeled as dishwasher safe. Some exceptions include gadgets with gearing such as can openers, items inappropriate for submerging in water such as scales or dial timers, any items made of wood, and all battery-operated items such as digital timers and thermometers. For best results, or if in question, hand wash items with a soapy cloth or sponge and dry immediately. Dishwashing tends to shorten the life of kitchenware products due to heat and aggressive detergents.

We cannot guarantee that you will be able to completely remove a stain. Soak the lid in a mixture of water and vinegar and/or try to use a non-abrasive cleanser to lighten stains.

To prevent staining, we recommend not filling the dish to the rim/top. Leaving about a 1/2"" to 1"" gap will allow room for foods to expand when cooled or frozen, thus preventing them from coming in to contact with the plastic cover. Adding a layer of plastic wrap, wax, or parchment paper before placing the plastic cover, can also help protect the plastic cover.

All current products have lead-free enamels, and all of our decorations have always met the established FDA guidelines as they have evolved.

This testing confirms that our products comply with all applicable federal and state safety regulations, including those related to lead and other heavy metals, content, and that they are safe to use in a manner consistent with their use and care instructions."

The gray marks are most likely from metal utensils, which should not be used with CorningWare® casserole dishes. Instead use wooden, nylon or plastic utensils. To loosen food before cleaning, allow the bakeware to soak and then use only plastic or nylon cleaning pads with nonabrasive cleansers. A soft sponge with a non-abrasive cleaner should remove the gray marks. 

The five new shapes - each with new handle designs for safety and comfort - are ideal for complementing your current French White® collection or starting a new one. The glass covers provide a contemporary look, and the plastic covers are vented with an inner seal to optimize freshness. The new design eliminates areas where food can become trapped, allowing room for fingers to easily wipe away remnants. Plus, the new pieces are all dishwasher safe. 

The new gasket-sealing plastic covers feature a unique design to help keep your stored food as fresh as possible. Simply press down the cover and close the steam vent to create a tight seal. Later, simply pop the steam vent to open the seal. 

All CorningWare® oven bakeware products (including metallic-banded French White® products) can be used in conventional, convection and microwave ovens as well as in the refrigerator, freezer and dishwasher. 

Corningware Percolators have been discontinued for some time and no parts are available. If you have a specific question you need assistance with, please email us via our online contact form. 

All CorningWare® stoneware bakeware is covered by a limited one-year warranty. For details, check out our warranty section. 

All CorningWare® stoneware bakeware items are breakable. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury or property damage. Tempting as it may be, do not use on stovetop, under a broiler/griller, under a microwave browning element, in a toaster oven, or on or near any other direct heating source such as range vents, open flames, etc. See full instructions for stoneware bakeware in our use & care section. 

Chicago Cutlery® knives are warranted to be free of defects in material &workmanship under normal household use for the lifetime of the product. 

Sharp knives are safer than dull ones because dull knives require more pressure for cutting, which can result in slipping. 1. Hold sharpening steel point down on flat stable surface like table or cutting board 2. Angle the knife blade so that it is approximately 15 degrees from the sharpening steel 3. Pull the knife down and across the sharpening steel in a slight arc, pulling the knife handle toward you. Stroke the entire blade edge from base to tip. 4. Repeat on the other side of the steel. 5. Repeat steps 3 &4 three to five times, alternating the right and left side of the cutting edge. Knives should be sharpened after every couple uses for maximum performance. Use a scouring powder to clean and remove metal particles from your sharpening steel. After cleaning the steel, rinse it with water, dry it thoroughly and store it in a dry place. 

For best results, hand wash your knives with a soapy cloth and dry immediately. Soaking wood-handled knives in water can remove the natural oils from the handles. Dishwashing may cause banging against other dishes that can nick the edges. Additionally, the heat and detergent may have a corrosive effect on the handles. 

Sharp knives should never be stored loose in a drawer because contact with hard objects can dull the blade, and reaching into a knife drawer can be very dangerous. We recommend storing your knives in a hardwood block for safety and convenience. Many Chicago Cutlery® sets include a hardwood block for storage. Empty Chicago Cutlery® hardwood blocks are also available at many retailers. 

Stamped knives are punched out of a single sheet of steel, resulting in thin, light blades. Forged knives are made from one piece of steel that is heated until soft then pounded into shape with a hammer. Forged knives are strong and heavy with a bolster (located where the blade meets the handle) for safety and balance. Chicago Cutlery offers a wide variety of knives with both stamped and forged blades. 

Commercial-grade knives are available through the following distributors: 

•    Gamco 
•    Hantover Bunzl-Koch Supplies 
•    Memco Southland Industrial Supply
