Green Bowl wiht G mark
Question:
I believe this is a Redwing bowl. It has a medium green glaze with natural stone color on the rim’s top and bottom. The diameter is 9.5 inches. The height is 5.25 inches. The square base measures 3 inches across. The bottom has the number nine inside a circle which is inside a shield shape and to the top right side of that, the number 2. The sides of the bowl are ridged and shaped at the bottom to create a different pattern. There is some wear to the bottom and though it looks chipped in the picture, it is really just worn. The condition is very good. There is a slight color variation in the glaze in parts of the interior of the bowl. I hope you can give me some information about this piece. I am interested in selling it so appreciate any information you can provide, including value. I have four pictures of this bowl. Thank you! Signe
Hi Signe
will get this forwarded to our dinnerware expert. thanks, steve n rose
