you have two vases from the brushed ware line, early Red Wing art pottery. Your dates are correct. Think the first one may be shape # 133, the second, with the Heron’s is # 144. Both came in 3 sizes. Their value is around 70.00 each. Please do join the society, there are a lot of us…. thanks, steve n rose

Answer: Your item sounds like the Deer and console bowl, a fairly easy peice to find. They are part of the Magnolia line, circa 1946. Egshell Ivory/antiqued with brown is the glaze. First introduced about 1938 The bowl is #526 and the Deer flower frog is #531 Because they are easy to find their value is about $60 for the set.

Question:
I have this "Redwing USA M3017" fruit compote by Charles Murphy. I believe it is Travertine glaze–what I would call mid-century green. My mother-in-law bought it new probably in 50′s or 60′s. It has some Crackling–original? Could you give me the year manufactured and a value range? I want to sell it by online auction but I was given wildly different values by local antique dealers. Thanks!
Answer: This is part of the decorator line, circa 1959-1961. The crackle is normal. The glaze maybe silver-green, which is a decorator line color, but this one looks a bit different. Value is around 55.00. thanks, steve n rose
