Question:
I found this crock in my mother’s storage. I tried to look its value up online but not sure I know what I’m doing. Hope you can tell me alittle about this piece. See photos attached. Looks to be in excellant condition. No chips, cracks, etc. Measures 14" across top and stands 15" Tall. Elephant Ears on side. Number 8 with two Leaves and Underneath Leaves shows Union Stoneware Co. Red Wing Minn. Thanks for your help. Bonnie
Answer: Bonnie your 8 gallon birch leaf crock was produced by the Minnesota Stoneware Company somewhere between 1895 & 1906. In today’s markets the value in perfect condition would be between $75 & $125. Al Kohlman
