Question:
Hi, I have an aqua oval flower dish with a raised leaf design. There are tiny brown specks in the aqua glaze. In addition there is a dark brown deer "frog". The glaze is very thick. Both are marked Red Wing and are in perfect condition.

Can you tell me when these were produced and what the value might be?

Thank you for your help, Marly Z.

Answer:
Marly, You have one of Red Wings most popular forms. The bowl is #526, and
the Deer frog is # 531. They were made for almost twenty years.
You have a mix & match glaze. The bowl would be Fleck Nile Blue, and
the Deer is most likely Bronze. The set may bring around 50 or so
being mismatched in glazes. thanks, steve n rose

Question:
Hi, Some time ago I acquired a Red Wing Stoneware Umbrella Vase? It is green and tan glaze with vertical stripes except for a upper border of leaves and some type of bird like a stork or heron aournd the diameter. I would love to find out more about this piece if possible, especially what time period it came from and what the design means. Appreciate any information you can give me and thank you for your time. Thanks Terri T.

Answer:
Hi Terri Think you have a brushware vase from the early 30′s. Stork, ostrich, emu, not really sure. It came in 3 different sizes, 8,10,12". Value is according to size. 60-100 or so. RRP also made a similar vase. Some of Red Wing’s were marked with a circular ink stamp. thanks, steve n rose

Question:
Can you tell me the value of a large flower pot with
saucer. I believe it to be Red wing. It has a green mat finish with a cream under coat.It has leaves on it. No marks on bottom. please include any info. Thanks Linda M.

Answer:
Linda, It is hard to tell what you have. Red Wing made quite a few flower pots through out it’s history. They made flower pots with raised leaves or flowers, painted leaves or with wreaths of leaves around the pot as well as many other designs. Flower pots were made in varying sizes as well. A picture would be very helpful. Thanks, steve n rose

We would like some information on a stoneware umbrella stand purchased at a garage sale. We do know that the lady we purchased this from moved to South Dakota from California. The piece has no markings on the bottom other than 3 or 4 lines, can’t make out what it is if anything.The stand in 18" tall, 8 and 3/4 at the top and 8" on the bottom. No chips or cracks. Thanks for any information you can provide. Thanks Cheryl

Answer:
Hi Cheryl, I think your umbrella stand was made by Western Stoneware. It’s not Red Wing. Still nice. Maybe worth around 80-100 or so. thanks, steve n rose

Question:
I saw a green brushware umbrella stand the other day, it was decorated with flowers. The tag said Red Wing. Did RW make such a piece and was the amount of $210 a good price. I didnt see any damage. Thanks Kathy D.

Answer:
Hi Kathy, Red Wing did make an umbrella stand, and 210.00 would be well worth the price if indeed it is Red Wing. RRP also made them, a "poppy" type pattern. Unless it is marked, I would be careful without more positive proof. thanks, steve n rose

I just bought a beautiful Red-Wing vase at a garage sale. It is 9" high, creamy peach/pink on the outside and a crackled cream on the inside. On the bottom Red-Wing is two words with the hypen between. U.S.A. with a period after the U and the A is underneath the words Red-Wing. It’s numbered 1171 It has a small chip on the very top. Other than that it is in excellent condition. Do you have any clue as to what it’s value is? I would like to use it as a flower vase if it’s not worth too much. Thank You, Mary A. Holland MI

Answer:
Hi Mary, If you like it, keep it! Holding flowers are their main purpose. It is a fairly common vase, and the chip will hurt it’s value. thanks, steve n rose
