Question: I’ve been collecting Red Wing Stoneware for about 20 years and I came across an unmarked salt glaze beehive piece that has a very odd design that I’ve not seen before. Attached are pictures of the jug. Thank you for your help.Keith
Answer: Nice Beehive. The S/A mark as been debated for years as whether it is Red Wing or another pottery produced it. Your jug does look like a Red Wing beehive. Either way, there are a number of S/A collectors in the Society that would love this jug. Also, being a 4 gallon jug makes it a tough find. With the chip in the spout and the side of the jug, I think, it could still fetch $2000 to $2500 to the right collectors. al
