Pierre the Chef, pink with blue trim

Question:
My mother was raised in Red Wing, MN and I have one piece from her that has been in the family since the 1950′s. It is a cookie jar, shaped as a old Italian chef. He is pink in color with navy blue shoes, chef hat and tie around his neck. We’re having a garage sale and would like to know if it’s worth hanging on to or having it appraised. It looks like a glazed ceramic piece. I looked for numbers but can’t find any. The only marking says: Red Wing USA Thanks, Michelle

Cylinder Dinnerware Line: Pepe, Desert Sun, and Turtle Dove

Question:
Hello Larry, First, just wanted to thank you for this excellent service, it’s been a real help as I have begun to collect Red Wing pottery. I’m a big fan of the Cylinder dinnerware line, and have collected a fair amount of Pompeii and Pepe, many of which I use and enjoy daily. I also have a couple pieces of Desert Sun, and I was curious if you know why the plates of Desert Sun have a different shape than those of the rest of cylinder. They have more of a raised, extended border, whereas the rest of the series seem to just come to a raised edge. Also, speaking of cylinder, it seems that Turtle Dove is a less-collected pattern perhaps. What would be a value estimate for a turtle dove beverage server? Thanks! Zack

3 gallon crock

Question:
I’m curious about the piece pictured. It is a salt glazed, 3 gallon crock with a gray exterior, brown interior, and cobalt lettering. The underneath of the lip and molded handles have a brown speckle to them. It’s not in perfect condition, as there are a few chips on the lip and a very small crack on the back side (superficial – does not go through.) Any idea on if it is Red Wing, the age, and possible value? Thanks! Nathan

8 gallon crocks with black numbers

Question:
Is it unusual for 8 gallon crocks to have a black numbers on them above the red wings? All of the numbers in our collection have blue stamped numbers above the red wings. We were just curious if this had something to do with the age/value. Shannon
