Prep Bowls – Mixed Set of 2
Item Number 867 – 41630
Introduced 8/2017
Discontinued 2024
Fiesta® Multicolor – small bowl in Lapis (left), large bowl in Lemongrass (right).
- HLC announced in 2017 that they were introducing a mixed color combination set (see above). What surprised me was, HLC also took all the solid colored sets out of production. So at this time, FTC only produces the following prep bowls: large in Lemongrass and small in Lapis, and they are sold only in this new color combo set.
- Vintage nesting mixing bowls are similar yet different from Post 86 prep bowls. The illustration to the left shows the two bowls side by side. Notice the Post 86 bowl (right) has a footed/pedestal style base where the Vintage (left) does not.
- The Vintage nested mixing bowls came in seven different sizes. However, lids were produced for only the four smallest Vintage mixing bowls. The illustration to the right shows a number 1 bowl with lid and a number 4 bowl with lid in the background.
