READ - This piece is in Excellent Glossy Condition. Pattern is bright and bold. No scratches or signs of much use at all. It’s beautiful. Found hidden in our Family barn wrapped up for years.
Rarity: This is considered one of the rarest Pyrex patterns. Hard to find in this near perfect glossy condition. Seriously this piece appears brand new.
Hard to find and only a few even available to purchase. This was a promotional item that Pyrex made for another company, Dainty Maids, and it was sold through catalog sales.
Manufactured in the 1950s, the bowl does not feature a Pyrex stamp or any kind of marking, and the name “turquoise diamonds” is non-standard.

History One of the rarest Pyrex patterns, Turquoise Diamonds, remained a mystery until 2018 when the first Turquoise Diamonds bowl was discovered by a collector in its original box. Later, it was discovered that the bowl had been manufactured for a brand known as Dainty Maid – this was the reason why the bowl did not feature Pyrex markings.
