Question:
I just purchased a red wing crock at a garage sale and want to know the value. The condition is excellent – has the bail handles – 4" red wing – stamped with a number 6 – stamped Patented Dec 2nd 1815 – stamped Red Wing Union Stoneware Co. Redwing, Minn Thanks Kristy

 

Answer: Kristy, your 6 gallon Red Wing crock would be stamped Patented Dec 21st 1915 – This is when Red Wing patented the handles on your crock. In perfect condition, in today’s market $75 to $80. Any damage and the value will drop to half. Al Kohlman
