Melamine / melmac was introduced in the 1930's, but didn't become popular with the public until after WWII. Texas Ware was one of a number of brands. It was founded in 1946 and was the largest producers in the melanine heyday. Texas Ware dishes are all tapered and designed to be stackable. They are also practically unbreakable.

In the 1950's, innovation, whether it was in automobiles, in homes or in fashion, was everywhere. It was precisely during this time that Americans began to set out meals on colorful, unbreakable and lightweight dishes called Melmac. This popular dishware appeared in many patterns and colors, but Texas Ware, or Dallas Ware, were among the most popular because of their appealing solid pastels, bright colors and distinctive patterns.
