The Gooseberry Pyrex pattern is very popular even though it is not a tremendously rare pattern (except for the goldleaf gooseberry). This is especially true of the pink gooseberry items, which command more attention than the black, yellow and white variety. The pattern is an older one, dating from the 50s. For the Cinderella bowl set, the usual 4 bowls #441-#444 are present with alternating Pink Gooseberry patterns on White and White Gooseberry patterns on Pink.

Thank you to BabyG06 whose photo of the 4 bowls we’ve featured above. Note, we’ve heard that the pink gooseberry patterns (and older patterns in general) can be very susceptible to wear. Use caution when washing these in anything other than mild soap and lukewarm water.
