Red Wing USA B1420, Belle Kogan designer

Question:
I am wondering what you can tell me about this centerpiece planter. That is its function, but I don’t know exactly what to call it.

What do you think it is worth? How old is it? It belongs to my mother. Mary

question from: frank0839@cox.net

Question:
I wrote to ask about a piece already. I have more info to add. The piece does say Union in the little oval. It is about the size of a 5 gal bucket, but it does have a crack on the back side that runs from the lip about half way down. The crack goes all the way through the crock. Can it be repaired? Does it have any value? It has the red wing and the #6 on it.
