Question:
I have a Red Wing vase, #416, medium pink with gray speckles. It is "fan-shaped", consisting of 5 tube-shaped forms. Inside, it is a gray color. It looks like perhaps it would be useful for larger flowers, such as gladiolas. Any idea of how old it is and its value? Sandra Haas

Utah Advertising Stoneware
Question:
I have several Red Wing made stoneware crocks and jugs with Utah advertising on them. I collect Utah advertising stoneware and Utah bottles, but my favorites are those screw top pieces with the Utah advertising.
I have three quart pieces with blue stencil from Bountiful, Sandy, and Kaysville Utah. They look great together. I also have a nice 12 gal. with the Bountiful advertising and a 1/2 gal. jug from the Louisville liquor Co. in Salt Lake. On the screw top pieces. I think my Kaysville and the Sandy are the only ones known with two of the quart Bountiful ones known and one whole and one glued together in the 1/2 gal. Bountiful. I know of one quart piece from Tremonton and a 1/2 gal. from Farmington. I would like to put them all together on my shelf. The 12 gal. Bountiful is the largest advertising crock known from Utah and was my wife’s grandmothers crock. The last one I bought, I am paying $2,500 for. Do you think that is about right for the piece. I know I would have to pay that much for the Farmington and possibly more for the Tremonton. Thank you David Emett

3 Gallon large wing shoulder jug
Question:
I am interested in purchasing a 3 gallon Red Wing jug that was posted on a website. I would like to make a fair offer, but I am not sure of the value. I also want to avoid paying more than I should for the piece, if the Seller were to come back with a counter offer. Could you give me an estimated value of the jug? The Seller has described it is "in near perfect condition", I have attached a picture. Thank you.

question from: impactdesign@wi.rr.com
Question:
Hi. Would you be able to estimate a value for this 3-gallon shoulder crock in perfect condition (e.g. no cracks)? There are several glazing flakes and \”flecks\” in the stoneware. The red wing measures approximately 4-1/8 inches in length. This crock measures approx. 15-inches high and has a base diameter of 9 3/4 inches. I also have what appears to be the original cork (with the top corner broken/chipped off).
I would appreciate any information you could provide on this piece. Thank you for your time and expertise!
