Answer:
Andrea, your Red Wing 20 lb crock was used to store butter. Just a heart break to see that someone drilled a hole in the bottom. Without the hole, the value is around $800. With the hole, $100 to $200 at best. Your 5 gallon Red Wing is a butter churn. Without the lid, the value is between $170 & $190. Al Kohlman
Question:
I found this crock while cleaning out my grandma’s attic. How would I tell if it is worth anything or a reproduction?
I do not see a stamp anywhere :(
Thanks
Christine
Answer:
Christine, your 3 gallon salt glazed butter churn is not a reproduction. I am not sure if it is Red Wing by what I can see in the photo, but either way it still has value. Value would be in the range of $200 to $300 if there is no cracks or major chips. Al Kohlman
Question:
What is this lid with a red wing stamp worth?
Answer:
The one gallon Red Wing button lid with small red wing is rare. In perfect condition today, the value is between $500 & $600 to the right collector. Al Kohlman
Question:
Hey Guys,
I picked these pieces up at auction and I was curious on value. The 5 gallon H2O cooler is an St. Paul Book and Stationary advertising piece. The lid and cooler are in mint shape. On the second pic, the advertising pantry jar has a small hairline and a chip on the backside about the size of a pinky nail. The lid on it is perfect. The mini’s are mint. I love the “The Atlantic” Butte, MT mini with the blue stamping. It’s cool.
Take care!
Answer:
Dru, your St. Paul advertising water cooler has a value between $1000 & $1100 in perfect condition with lid. The advertising pantry jar with crack and mint lid, $500 to $600. The Montana mini jug $500 & two Chicago mini jugs being $300 each. Al Kohlman
Question:
I was wondering if someone can give me some information. I was cleaning in my grandma’s basement and came across a box of Redwing Pottery. There are 8 small boxes inside the bigger box in the picture’s. There is a dinner plate, salad plate, and a cup and saucer in each smaller box. Can you tell me how old these might be? It says Village Green on the bottom of the box? Do they have any value? Is it rare to see them still in their original boxes. I don’t think they were ever used, but I can’t be sure. I look forward to hearing back from you….thank you in advance.
Lee
Answer:
The Village Green pattern was introduced in 1952 and was made until Red Wing Potteries closed in 1967. Village Green was a very popular pattern in its day and is still popular with collectors today. One place setting that consists of a dinner plate, a salad plate, and a cup and saucer would be worth around $25-30 if all items are in mint condition.
The cardboard box that is marked Village Green probably has some value but without a photo or detailed description I cannot evaluate it. What other markings are on the box and how is the Village Green name applied? An original Red Wing Potteries box with company logos and markings and with the Village Green stamped on it in black ink would be worth $40-60 in excellent condition. Poor condition would reduce the value. A plain cardboard box with Village Green written on it in black marker would be worth nothing. The small boxes are apparently not marked at all so they would have little or no value. Again, a photo is needed to evaluate them.

Question:
Hello,
My name is Elizabeth Lenhard. I am doing some research for my Grandpa. He has a ceramic Red Wing ashtray that says 782 on the bottom. It is a dark brown color with a shiny glaze. No marks, it does not look like it was ever used. Rectangular in shape, the dip for the ashes is oval. There are six tines in the center. The outer edges/ corners are curved. The dimensions are: 6.5″LX5″WX1.5″H. I can’t get a picture right now but when I go home next weekend I’ll try to take a picture and send them to the phone number.
Thanks,
Elizabeth
Answer:
