Salt Glaze funnel with turkey droppings

Question:
We have a beautiful huge salt glazed funnel with turkey tracks. We are wondering if it can be attributed to Red Wing. The bowl measures 12" in diam. x 9 in deep plus the nozzle is around 3 inches long, there is also a hefty handle on it. The inside is glazed brown. It is in near perfect condition with a couple bumps on the two tracks or droppings of brown glaze. This can all be seen in the photo. Your help is greatly appreciated. Kimberly
