Question:
Hi, I am not sure if this Blue Planter is Red Wing or not. Under the glazing on the bottom I can barely see some letters that I think are as follows REDW USA. The lettering is not in the center of the bottom but way to one side, so it looks like they just ran out of room when imprinting. Plus the glaze is so heavy that it has filled in the indentations of the letters. The measurements are 5 1/8" high x 5 1/2" outside dia. It is in excellent condition. No chips, cracks or scratches. Could you please tell me if this is Red Wing and any info about when it was made and how much it might be worth? Thank you for your time. Bobbie

Answer: Hi Bobbie, this is actually considered stoneware, a beater jar, from the 30′s. Nice find, it has a value of around 140.00 or so. thanks, steve n rose
