Red Wing Dinnerware: Microwave and dishwasher safe?

Question:

I was gifted a set of brown Red Wing dishes. I’m not sure if they would be considered dinnerware or stone ware. On the back of the plates I found the Red Wing name and different numbers. Some plates have the name and the number 217 and others have the name number 346. They also state that they are hand painted and oven proof. My question is since they are oven proof are they microwaveable? And what is the highest temperature they would be oven proof to? Is it ok that I use these for everyday dishes. What harm would be done if I did use them in the dishwasher? Thank you Elizabeth

Round Up Dinnerware

Question:
I have an assortment of Red Wing hand painted pieces with western theme – mostly cowboys branding cattle. The piece in front of me is a meat platter with the number 349 on it. The other pieces are packed away in boxes (cereal bowls, a few dinner plates, cups, saucers, and then some larger pieces like a bean pot with a lid, an approximate 2 gal. piece with spiggot, 2 pitchers, etc.) I’m not sure I’d ever want to sell them, but wondered what their value might be. The dishes aren’t in as good a shape as the serving pieces. Some have chips. The meat platter has a couple of small chips on the underside of the rim. What can you tell me about them? I’m sure my parents bought them at Red Wing probably in the early 60′s, if I had to guess the time frame. Thanks. Dori

Provincialware Bean Pot

Question:
I will forward a photo if you are unable to answer my question without one. I have a double handle bean pot. Glazed on the inside and marked on the outside "RED WING PROVINCIAL WARE" AND THE NUMBER 29. I purchased this someforty-five years ago and have enjoyed using it in the kitchen to hold utensils. A friend asked me about the pot and suggested I get in touch with someone who may know about it. It seems to be much less fancy than the variou examples I have seen of Red Wing Pottery on your web site. Please accept my grateful Thanks in Advance! Virginia
