Hi: This is a three tier dessert tray top tier. The piece is marked Red Wing Pottery Hand Painted on the back.

Question:
I found an old crock in my folks basement. It says MINNESOTA STONEWARE CO. RED WING, MINN on the bottom. It is a light brown, 8 1/2 in H x 7 3/4 in in diameter. It is not perfectly round at the top. There is no decoration on it & has a 3/4 in lip at the top & is dark brown inside. I took pictures to send you but can’t figure out how to do it. I’ll ask a neighbor and try again later. Thank you so much for your input.

Red Wing Ashtray
Question:
I found this ashtray while going thru my mom’s things. It says Red Wing Potteries usa on the back. After doing a little research, I found it listed on Ebay for 25.00. I know the chip drops the value, but I have a couple questions for you: 1. How old is it? 2. Is this a common piece? 3. Is 25.00 an accurate value? and is it worthless with the chip? 4. Would I devalue it even more if I found a matching shade of nail polish to camouflage it? Thank you Kristie Stanek
Answer: Hi Kristie, these are from the early fifties, and fairly common, unless it’s in an odd color. A chip is a chip, even covered up. I would say that’s a fair value. thanks, steve n rose
