Question:
I have a 20" Red Wing USA Green vase marked M-3015. There are a few chips on the underside of the high relief areas. How much do chips effect the value and is it better to repair the damage or leave it alone? Lisa
Answer: Hi Lisa
this is part of Charles Murphy’s decorator line, circa 1959. It has a book value of around 375.00. The chips will hurt it, everyone seems to want "perfect". Repairs are fairly expensive, I would just leave it as found. Still a nice vase, it may bring 200.00 or so as is. thanks, steve n rose
