Question:

Red Wing Collector Society,

Attached are a few pictures of our crock collection. Please provide a rough idea of the value. The Red Wing 4 gallon jug is in perfect condition with no cracks or chips. I believe the 4 gal size is most rare. Thanks for all your advice and for providing a great service to us novice in the crock world.

Tom

Answer:

Tom, the only two pieces of stoneware that I can help you with are the Red Wing 4 gallon beehive jug and 6 gallon salt glazed crock with the lazy 8 decoration. The other pieces are not Red Wing or not decorated.

 The 4 gallon winged beehive in prefect condition is valued today around $800.  They use to be $1000.

The 6 gallon Red Wing salt glazed crock with lazy 8 in perfect condition is between $250 & $300.  Al Kohlman
