Need a new Lid for my bowl

Do you know if I can get a new lid for this bowl? It is a flat see through glass lid the same shape as the bowl with the handles on the lid too. The bowl is about 6 inches diameter round.

The bowl is oven proof. I like it cos it's old but I just broke the lid.

    Hi Wig,

    You may get more replies on the I wanna board, but I'll leave your thread here until sometime tomorrow to see if any of the Old Stylers recognise the bowl.

    What about trying woolworths to see if they have any cheapish bowls with a lid in the same dimensions?

    I'll try that, that's what I mean, if anyone knows a similar bowl with lid on sale today.

    What about these? The first is probably too small and the postage seems bit steep on the second one.

    Edit This is the sort of thing I was thinking of, but you may not want three.

    If you cannot get a replacement lid then use kitchen foil. 1a_y_wink.gif

    what about going to your local market hall (if there is one) and asking on a kitchenware stall thats what i'd do they may sell lids seperately, when i saw the picture of the dish i thought "eee they just dont make em like they used to!!" and i can see why it's important you find a lid, ive bought new dishes but the old ones keep going strong they seem to be better but i dont know why! good luck i hope ive helped you!

    Ahhh another good idea, we have a pretty good market in Pontypridd, the town is famous for the market, but it's not a scratch now on what it was probably like 50 year ago. And I'll be surprised if there isn't a kitchen & stuff stall there. I like your Kaleidoscope too.
  • im pretty sure our local woolworths had pyrex dishes with lids in the sale,, try there.

  • Two more suggestions - ooooo, now grown to 4!

    Pyrex dishes again - Tesco's had some really cheap the other day, worth measuring up

    For most things, an ordinary dinner plate on top will be almost as good as a lid

    I had a very old friend who broke the lid of their slow cooker. They got someone to turn them a wooden one - worked wonderfully! (Or you could get someone taking a pottery class to make you one maybe?)

    Some really organised charity shops keep a stock of unmatched lids in the back for people like you ;)
