Question:

We recently purchased a 4 gallon salt glaze churn with what we thought might be a “lazy 8” and were wondering if it is Red Wing, and if so – the approximate value.  I’ve attached 5 pictures showing the detail.  Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated!Thank you,

Jon

Answer:

Jon, your 4 gallon lazy 8 salt glazed churn is Red Wing.  Because the decoration is quite common, it does not carry the value of the leaves or rib cages, but still a nice piece.  In perfect condition the value is $250 to $300.  Al Kohlman
