Fire-King is a brand of glassware produced by the Anchor Hocking Glass Corporation, primarily from the 1940s to the 1970s. Known for its durable milk glass, Fire-King items were popular for everyday kitchen use and were often sold in diners and restaurants due to their sturdiness and attractive designs. The "Peach Lustre" line, introduced in the 1950s, featured a distinctive iridescent sheen that made these pieces highly collectible.
This particular square baking dish, often referred to as an 8x8 inch pan, is a classic example of Fire-King ovenware. The "Peach Lustre" finish, achieved through a special firing process, gives the glassware a warm, shimmering appearance that is highly sought after by collectors of vintage kitchenalia. These dishes were designed for baking and serving, combining functionality with aesthetic appeal. 941
