Turquoise and Brown Serving pieces

Question:
I have some dinnerware, turquoise plates with brown on the edge. Casserole dish, brown on the outside, turquoise on the inside, mugs, cups, teapot, small and large plates. I don’t need to know the exact value as I am just trying to figure out if they are Red Wing. I believe my aunt, who lived in Red Wing, may have given them to my grandmother in the 1940′s or 1950′s. Everything is packed so I don’t have a picture. If you can confirm that Red Wing made dinnerware in this color I will photograph at a later date. Thanks so much!

They are all in great condition with no chips at all.
