You can put it in the oven and on the burner. I don't see why you can't put it under the broiler then. Should be safe.

I have, babe...but I put it on the lowest level of the broiler and I don't do it for very long..just long enough to brown or whatever. So far so good..maybe I've been lucky! Happy Thursday! :) ((hugs))

It is claimed to be ok, but I wouldn't trust it. The thought of having a dinner ruined and food dripping down and burning over the floor of the oven is just more than I'm willing to risk.

Funny you should ask this... I was coming here today to ask whether you can use Corningware on a gas stove top, lol. BTW, do you know if you can? And I have used it to broil, but not for an extended period of time, just to brown the top of my baked Mac & Cheese.

Yes, vintage Corningware can be placed under the broiler. Direct heat will not damage the cookware. Corningware from the day it was sold in 1957, it was made for the stovetop, the oven, the microwave, the dishwasher, refrigerator and the freezer. The material that Corningware was made from, called Pyroceram was a glass-ceramic material that could withstand quick changes between hot and cold without breakage or problems. Corning made millions of the white dishes in a variety of schemes over a thirty year period. Look on the bottom of your dishes, and you will see the markings for its usage. The dishes with handles are the best ones for stovetop usage, and earlier editions had a removable handle for stovetop use. Dishes such as souffle dishes, pie plates, etc. while they can be used on the stovetop are not practical since they lack handles. Corning also in the 1980's made a line of Visions cookware in amber and cranberry colors, that was also a glass-ceramic material for stovetop, oven, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator and freezer usage. About the year 2000, Corning the company sold its housewares Consumer division, and thus no longer make the "Vintage Corningware" or Visions cookware. A new company, World Kitchens now markets the brand Corningware, but they use a material called stoneware to make the dishes. These dishes are not made for stovetop usage, they are to be used in the oven, the microwave, the dishwasher, and refrigerator, and maybe the freezer - but not for quick changes in the temperature. Again, these items made from stoneware CAN NOT be used on the stove top. There are markings on the product and box that make this very clear. World Kitchens does not make any products for the stovetop. These dishes can not be placed under the broiler. World Kitchens now markets all the kitchenware products that used to be made by Corning. There are several places online to obtain Vintage Corningware and Visions cookware. You may be able to find remnants of it on ebay, or directly from www.corningware.com. Hope this helps.
