Circa 1938 to 1942: The upper circumfrence of the #6 Fiesta bowl measures nearly 31" around. That is wider than many waists, so it is no wonder the #6 bowls have a super presence. In relationship to that great expanse, this bowls 2 small dings on its outside lip don't seem so deter from it's stunning look. What I notice in this bowl is its vast orange glaze, wonderful scratch free inside, nice and even glaze without mishap or flaws. (Please note the small 1/16" ding under the lip shown in the third photo on the left side of the bowl, the other 2/16" ding can be seen in the thirteenth photo at about 9 o'clock).

Hand dipped and tooled in the most desirable and hard to find color of the #6 bowls, the vintage radioactive red just can't be beat. It is the #6 and #7 Fiesta mixing bowls which will prove the hardest for the collector to find. Becoming heavy and very large at this size they were not as widely used as the other bowls. Whether you are framing your set, or displaying on shelves, the large #6 red is a delight to add to your collection. Nicely marked on the bottom in the mold with the impressed mark "HCLo fiesta MADE IN USA" and a nicely visible number 6. Measures an impressive 9 11/16" w x 6 5/16h"
