The brand has been at home in our refrigerators and cabinets for over 100 years, and we've enjoyed everything from heirloom Pyrex<\/a> collections to modern Disney-themed sets<\/a> from Costco<\/a>.\r\n\r\nPyrex is something most of us use every day,\u00a0 but have you noticed the numbers printed on the bottom your favorite Pyrex piece?\r\n\r\nIt's a model number, and you'll want to keep track of it. From Pyrex novice to vintage collector, these three- or four-digit codes are a must-know. Here's what they mean.\r\nWhat Are Pyrex Model Numbers?<\/h2>\r\nEach Pyrex piece is assigned a model number, though some of the earliest sets of color ware pieces do not have them. Model numbers are typically found on the bottom of your glassware, though sometimes they are located elsewhere\u2014look for them above the trademark on your dishes, and around handles and edges of lids.\r\n\r\nGenerally, these short codes are a good reference for consumers and Pyrex owners. They are not <\/em>the same numbers found in Pyrex catalogs\u2014those numbers don't appear anywhere on your glassware. You might see other numbers on your pieces, too, and these usually refer to molding operations and are not significant to the item.\r\n\r\nLearn how to take care of Pyrex dishes the right way<\/a>.\r\nWhy Model Numbers Are Important<\/h2>\r\nEven if you don't have an extensive collection of Pyrex, understanding the model numbers of your pieces is important. If a dish were to break, for example, you would be able to locate its exact replacement with that simple code. The same goes for Pyrex enthusiasts and collectors out there\u2014if you desperately need a lid for your favorite vintage Pyrex piece<\/a>, you'll be able to scour eBay for one if you know the model number!\r\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\tRecipes to Make in Your Pyrex Dishes<\/div>\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/i>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t1 \/ 59<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/i>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\r\n[dam-video dam-id=\"26971\" type_of_player=\"jw\" \/]\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n \r\nChurch Supper Hot Dish<\/a>\r\nThis recipe was in my mother's church cookbook, and now it's in my church cookbook!
