One of the hardest-to-find pieces in the beloved CorningWare Spice of Life collection, this vintage 5-quart Dutch oven is ready for another generation of family meals.
The large 5-quart capacity makes it perfect for soups, chili, gumbo, casseroles, holiday side dishes, and storing leftovers without plastic. Before plastic storage containers filled kitchen cabinets, pieces like this were designed to go from the oven to the table to the refrigerator, making them as practical today as they were decades ago.
This example is Auntie Nen Certified in Excellent Vintage Condition. It has been carefully cleaned and inspected with no chips, cracks, dishwasher residue, or noticeable utensil marks. The original Pyrex glass lid is included and fits properly.
Growing up in Louisiana, Momma owned one just like this, and for reasons I'll never fully understand, she absolutely insisted on making gumbo in the microwave. She would stop every few minutes to stir the roux and add another ingredient. I still make mine the old-fashioned way on the stove, but every time I see one of these, I can't help but think of those marathon gumbo sessions.
The Spice of Life pattern remains one of the defining designs of the 1970s, with its warm harvest gold, avocado green, poppy orange, and earthy botanical motif that feels right at home in today's vintage kitchens.
Approximate measurements:
• Interior: 10 x 10 inches
• Exterior (handle to handle): 12 inches
• Height with lid: 7½ inches
• Height with lid inverted for storage: approximately 5 inches
Whether you're completing a Spice of Life collection, searching for the elusive 5-quart Dutch oven, or simply looking for a beautiful plastic-free way to cook and store food, this is a wonderful example.
Your order will be carefully packed to protect both the CorningWare and its original glass lid during transit.
