Question:
I would like to know the value of a Red Wing pottery planter, circa 1930′s, brushed ware, 10 inches high, 12 inches diameter, light green flat finish with foliage design outside, light green glaze inside, good condition. Thanks. Naomi
Answer: Hi Naomi
there are several different shapes done in the brushed ware line, so this is just a guess. An average price would be around 100.00 or so. A pic would be great, or a shape number. thanks, steve n rose

Hello there, I recently came across and ashtray on a 2ft metal stand. It is a clam shell design in turquoise color, numbered 1567. Can you tell me more about this piece? Thank you Dan
Answer: Hi Dan
it was designed in 1957. the glaze is called nile blue fleck. I haven’t seen this particular stand with the ashtray, so I’m not sure if it is original or not. Value is around 40.00 or so. thanks, steve n rose

My Mother-In-Law just gave me her Round Up Pottery. I have attached a picture of the items she had. A fairly large selection. I would like to know if some of these peices are rare. Like the salad dressing containers, etc. Can you give me an estimate of what this collection might be worth?
Question:
I have a jug with advertising that says "G. Martini & Co. Wholesale Liquor Dealers, Calumet, Mich." It is 1/2 gal. in size. The ovel around the adv. has a heavy oval ring an a lighter one inside of that. The printing is very vibrant and clear. The handle has the "pinched" look at the part that meets the jug itself. There are no chips or cracks: a very clean jug. The thing I’m wondering about is the shape of the jug. It doesn’t look like your tipical Red Wing jug shape. Is it a Red Wing? If so, what is it’s value. If you need a photo, I will send you one. Thank you, Barb

I have a yellow redwing vase, appears ti be stoneware, with the number B or D – i can’t make out which followed by 905 i would appreciate knowing what the signifycance of the number inscription is thanx ron walter
Answer: Hi Ron.
It’s not considered stoneware, but part of the art pottery line. The B would be for designer Belle Kogan. The number doesn’t quite match anything I have, try another look, there may be another number in there. thanks, steve n rose
Question:
I bought a piece of what I believe to be the Red Wing Driftwood pattern at a local antique sale. There is a red marking on the bottom with a wing logo, and it says simply Red Wing Handpainted. The number "297" is printed beneath it. The plate is odd-shaped – neither round nor square. There is also a waffling type texture to the platter – it is not smooth. Can you give me a history of the piece and approximate background? It was purchased for $9. Thank you!
