Question:
I have a piece of pottery that my grandmother gave me. She is now 92 years old and she said she won first prize at an antiques show 20 years ago with this piece. I’m not sure but its black and the bottom is very hard to read but I think it says Red Wing and there is a number M5005 or M-5003. I was wondering what it was and what if anything it was worth. It almost looks like a big candy dish or something. It has a base with a long neck like thing and the bow on top is rectangular. Thanks Susan W.

Susan, Your item is from the Garden Line, 1956. All are very simple in design. The value is around $20 or so. Thanks, steve n rose
