Question:
Greetings, Thanks for the help with the ID on the plain white Tex Tweed Anniversary Platter a few weeks ago. I just dug out another piece of Red Wing that I also need help with. I could not find an example of it anywhere but I did find a site that claims that this shape was attributed to Belle Kogan. It is a leaf shaped bowl or dish – Approx. 13-1/2” long X 6-1/2” wide. It has a pinkish salmon interior and a pale blue / grey underside. Marked on the bottom – RED WING, USA 1251. I was wondering if there was a name, date and perhaps an estimate of value for this piece. It is clean with no chips, cracks or repairs but the inside has some overall crazing and there is a 2-1/2” long X 1-1/2” long part on the inside that goes up the side that looks like a stain, but it appears more like it is inside the finish and not a stain that will wash off. Many thanks. Mercedes
Answer: Hi Mercedes, It could be a Kogan piece, hard to say. It’s from around 1946, and I know Murphy left in 1947 for a few years, the glaze appears to be luster pink. Value is around 20.00 or so. thanks, steve n rose

Question:
I have been collecting Red Wing pottery since ’94 but, I’m no narrowing down my collection to certain colors and patterns. So, I’m in the process of selling a few of my pieces. One piece I bought about 10 years ago is an oblong bowl, with a corn blue/purple glaze on it. At one time the color was referred to as "hyacinth" and was considered rare. Since i’m trying to sell it, is it considered a rare color and what would be a good selling price? thanks for your help! stephanie
Answer: Hi Stephanie, this is part of the "Stereoline", circa 1961. Not a real rare glaze. The art pottery market has slumped quite a bit. Nokomis, some early artware, and the decorator line are doing OK. I would value it around 40.00 or so. thanks, steve n rose
