Spice of Life value guide
Price Spice of Life by print quality, lid fit, and set completeness.
Single pieces usually sit around $10-$45 before adjustments. The best comps use both Spice of Life and La Marjolaine wording, then narrow by model code and condition.
IdentificationConfirm the warm herb-and-vegetable motif, often described as La Marjolaine, with brown, olive, and off-white printing.
Model examplesCommon searches include P-1-S, P-1 1/2-S, P-2-S, P-3-S, P-4-S, P-10-S, A-1-S, and A-2-S.
Lid adjustmentCorrect glass lids help kitchen-use buyers; cracked, cloudy, or wrong lids should not be valued like matched sets.
Set adjustmentSaucepan handles, multiple casseroles, and matching lids can lift value, but fading and staining quickly erase the premium.
Spice of Life FAQs
Is Spice of Life the same as La Marjolaine?
Yes. Sellers use both names for the herb-and-vegetable pattern, so search both terms when checking comps.
Is Spice of Life rare?
No. It is abundant, but clean P-10-S roasters, complete sets, and bright unfaded print can still sell better than loose singles.
What should I filter out of comps?
Remove Corelle plates, lid-only listings, modern Corningware, cracked pieces, mugs, and active listings that have not sold.
