Question:
I have 5 cup & saucer style pieces that I believe, some time ago, I saw in a Red wing catalog. I imagine originally there were 6 to the set. I would call them luncheon sets. The cups are mug style the little plates are approx. 6 inches, have a cup "hole" with a sweeping wing that goes on either side of the hole. The 5 sets I have are each a different color. White, blue, green(actually a turquoise color), and yellow. I’m going by memory here…so that may not be accurate! Any way…they are each a different color. I am interested in selling the set so would really like to know if it’s Red wing and an approx. value. I have them stored now so don’t have easy access to get a photo. Thanks for your help! Betty
Answer: Sorry, but I am unable to verify your items as Red Wing without a photo or a more accurate description. Red Wing made a Gypsy Trail chocolate set (mug and plate) that fit the colors you mentioned and the size, but there is no wing on the plates. Red Wing also made several luncheon sets but they don’t fit the colors or your description. One Gypsy Trail chocolate set (a mug and plate) in excellent condition would worth $25-35, if that is what you have.
