Manufacturer: Texas Ware, Melmac, Dallas, Texas These funky and highly collectibles mixing bowls were sold as a set in three sizes. They were made in Dallas, Texas by the Texas Ware Plastics & Manufacturing Company and are so marked in embossed letters on the bottom of each bowl.
The largest bowl, the #125 measures 11 1/4inches across and stands 5 1/4 inches tall. The middle bowl #118 measures 9 3/4 inches across and stands 4 1/2 inches tall. The smallest bowl #111 measures 8 inches across and stands 4 inches tall.
This is the Texas Ware #125 deep pink speckled mixing bowl in very very good vintage condition.

Its main shade is a deep and lustrous pink with inclusions of red, blue, white and black. Unlike most Texas Ware bowls, the mottling is very small, giving the impression the bowl is uniformly pink at first glance. It has normal vintage wear of some light knife marks in its center but retains a good glossy finish. Gorgeous glossy finish on the outside. Buy it and use it! Use a wooden spoon on it and it will be good to go for many more years of service. FREE of chips, cracks, burns OR discoloration. You will NOT be disappointed!!
Recently one has seen a Texas Ware vintage speckled Melmac bowl on the counter of Rachael Ray's TV kitchen. In fact, in late 2007, Food Network is now having produced and marketing a "Garbage Bowl" in a deep pumpkin color under the Rachael Ray name. Crate & Barrel has also put out a set of melmac bowls, but they just can't compare to the originals! |
