Question:
My mother just gave me a vase that was my Dad’s mothers vase. My Dad states he remembers this vase as far back as his memories go. The vase is 8 inches in height. The sides look like ribbons that come up and makes 2 ribbon loops for the handles. The design in the vase looks like scrolled leaves. It is ivory in color with a brushed red. The bottom of the piece clearly shows Red-Wing with the # 1165. Can you tell me anything about this piece such as how old, the value, history about this piece. I am unable to upload a picture if needed I will have my daughter upload. Joan

Answer: Joan, your vase dates from around 1942, and the glaze is antiqued ivory. Thanks for the great description. No special history, no special line it belonged to, just a nice shape. Value is around 45.00 in good condition. thanks, steve n rose
