Question:
I have a vase/pitcher..dark yellow in color, about 12" high. The bottom is stamped red wing u.s.a 911, the it looks like it is engraved 1972 EB , i can only upload one picture so i just sent the marking on the bottom. This was my grandmothers, and I always thought the initals "eb" were for her..esther barbara. Thanks! Jill

 

Answer: Hi Jill

this is a hobby shop item, done after Red Wing closed, in 1967. Molds were sold or remade by hobby stores, and glazed by other’s, this is probably glazed by your Grandmother, with the date and initials. The original shape was part of the Bronze line, from 1965. hope this helps, thanks, steve n rose
