Question:
Pictured item is 3.75 inches tall at the top of the handle and 3.5 inches at its widest point. It is turquoise in color (I think). Need to be cleaned but cannot find any chips or cracks. There is crazing in the light colored inside but not seeing any on the outside of the piece. The base is 2 inches across and "REDWING" is imprinted on the base as well. Interested in age and value. Will an e-mail be sent with link when answer is posted? I hope so. Thanks you for your time and having a site like this. Joel

Answer: The item in the photo is a turquoise creamer from the Reed pattern, part of the extensive Gypsy Trail line. This creamer was in the first group of Gypsy Trail pieces introduced in June 1935 and continued to be made for about 10 years. It is a commonly found piece and is worth around $15-20 in excellent condition. The crazing will reduce the value somewhat depending on the extent and whether the crazing is stained as well.
