Questions:

Hello,

Thanks in advance for your help,

I have a small Item of Redwing Stoneware (maybe Saltware?), It looks like a lid is missing and I cannot find anything similar to it to find a description, age, or value? Please see the attached Photos. There are no Hairlines, or crazing, just one chip on the bottom of one side(please see photo). I was thinking maybe a Refridgerator dish maybe?? It is 6 1/4″ tall, 4 1/4″ across at the top, 5 1/2″ across on the bottom. There is the original handle with once again no splits or cracks. The Bottom has a raised mark “Minnesota Redwing Stoneware Co.

Thanks again, I have attached 3 photos. 

Laura

Answer:

Laura, you have a Red Wing (bottom signed) zinc glazed packing jar that was used for canning.   With on decorations, advertising, lid and a few small chips, the value is quite low.  Maybe $20 or so.  Al Kohlman
