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 1/4 inches 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 #111 deep yellow speckled mixing bowl in good vintage condition.

Its main shade is a deep rich yellow with major inclusions of red and secondary inclusions of chartreuse green, cobalt blue, yellow, teal and white. It has average l wear in its center with some dulling of the gloss at the very center. Buy it and use it. Gorgeous glossy finish on the outside too. FREE of chips, cracks, burns OR discoloration. Use wooden utensils and it will give you years of service. 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! |
