Provencial Line “Lunch Hour” Plate with flower and names

Question:
I am trying to get any information at all about this piece. This is what I know about it. I was told it is Red Wing Pottery. It must have belonged to my Grandmother because her name is on the back (Sabina Rose). I believe she worked for the company in Red Wing, Minnesota but I can’t verify that either. The names were signed on it, her name was placed on the back and then it was fired. Any information that you can give me on this piece would be appreciated. Thank You! Debbi

Fruit or Salad Set – salad bowl and plates

Question:
I have what I assume is a salad bowl and 4 plates. The bowl is 12 1/2 in. diameter and the plates are 8 1/2 ins. The bowl and plates have fluted edges. The bowl is decorated with a pear, apple, cherries and grapes and each plate has a painting of one of these. All pieces have the Red Wing stamp and are handpainted. This is an old set from my Mother who purchased it somewhere in MN. It is in mint condition as it has probably been used only 2 or 3 times in the past 40 or 50 yrs. It this a colectors item and what is the worth ? Carol

Blossom Time pattern, concord shape yellow pieces

Question:
I am pretty sure that my pattern is called Blossom Time, but what I am not sure of is that it is yellow. The only Blossom Time I can find when I do research is in Green. The Yellow is bright and cheery and consistant with all the pieces with the set. I have teacups too with the yellow color on the outside and the Blossom Time Pattern on the inside, I have sugar bowls and creamers, ect.. At first I wondered if the lids and bottoms got mixed with another set but I really don’t believe it to be the case since I have so many peices with the yellow. Could you tell me if Yellow is just a variation of this pattern or if I have identified the pattern wrong all together. Thanks so much! Debbie
