Question:
I have a cold paint white swan planter with green interior and it also has a baby swan in the front next to the mother it has red wing USA 337. Do you have any idea of the value. I am a new pottery collector and this is my first red wing piece. Thanks so much! Debbie

Answer: Hi Debbie

the swan and chick planter is #1337, and dates to around 1947. In reference to "cold" paint, I refer to that as being painted over the glaze, which will wash or wear off. Your swan shouldn’t have that, unless someone adjusted the color on their own. They came in several glaze combinations, and have a value of around 80.00 or so. Welcome to pottery collecting! thanks, steve n rose
