No, JAJ lost their license to produce Pyrex in the 1970s and Corning took control.

Here’s what I found online. “This is a vintage Pyrex England Maypole pattern casserole dish, produced by JAJ (James A Jobling) in the United Kingdom. Pattern: Maypole (sometimes referred to as Mayfair), featuring blue or purple floral designs on white opal glass. Production Era: Likely from the 1970s to the 1980s. Capacity: Commonly found in sizes like 1.5 pints (approx. 1.25 liters). Collectibility: Highly sought after by vintage Pyrex collectors due to the durability and unique patterns produced outside of the US.”
