Question: 
Hello,
I just purchased this #3 Union Stoneware crock. Can you give me information on this piece. There is not , and it does not appear it ever had the blue stamp under the wing.
The wing itself feels like it has been embossed into the crock rather than stamped. Does the lid look like an original, or what an original would look like? The lid has a chip on the interior rim, the crock has no chips or cracks.
Lastly, can you give me an idea of value?
Thank you for your time.
Barb
Answer:
Barb, Your 3 gallon butter churn has a value around $165.00. It has a lot of ink on it when they stamped the wing that why it’s a little smudged and you can feel it. The lid is not Red Wing and goes on a crock.

This piece came from my father’s house, and I suspect it came from his parents’ house in Waseca, MN. I can find no other markings on the crock. Thank you for your time.

Answer:
Jean, Your 10 gallon salt glaze leaf crock is Red Wing. A big leaf will bring around $1000 in mint condition to the right person. The chip will bring it down $600-$800 .

Hi –
I came across these 3 lids for our collection earlier this summer. The pair of salt glazed (one and two gallon) and the other 2 gallon that’s Albany slip. I’ve done a couple of searches on the site, but have come up empty on anything.
I’d love to know more about these; the year ranges they were likely produced in, if only one of the Red Wing companies made each, and their value.
Thanks for your time,
Randy
Answer:
Randy,
These 2 lids are Red Wing salt glaze. 1 gal. value $100-$125 , The 2 gal. Value around $200-$250 in mint condition.

Question: Hello everyone,
Answer:
Leah, The pickle crock looks like a Red Wing preserve jar worth about $250, The Grommes and Ullrich 1 gallon jug about $125 and the 4 gallon jug about $300. Assuming in mint condition and far as selling you can post on the Red wing face book site, auction or craigslist works well.

Question: 
Hello,
I saw a bowl on eBay with advertising stating “Compliments of Darien Hardware, T. C. Synder, 1940, Darien, Wis.” The bowl was listed as a Red Wing piece and sold for $81. The seller stated that although unmarked, it was obviously a Red Wing bowl. I am not so sure, but would like your opinion. It is about the same size as a cap bowl, but has no markings and is a slightly different shape than Red Wing cap bowls. I took some photos from my computer monitor and have attached them. They aren’t the best photos, but they illustrate the bowl well enough to see that it is not a cap bowl. Can you help me with the identification of this bowl? Thanks for your help.
Rod
Answer:
This is a Red Wing bowl. They come in Blue, White, White with blue bands, Albany and sponged . The book doesn’t state a name but I have called them Cactus bowl.

Question:
Hello,
I’m hoping you might be able to provide some information on this red wing crock. The crock has a raised red wing stamp on the bottom and I cannot locate any information on a piece with this marking.
It measures 10 1/2 inches tall and 10 3/4 inches across. It has some some small chips along the bottom along with a hairline crack along the lower bottom edge. I’ve attached a picture of this damage.
I’m not a red wing collector but I am curious about the raised signature. I just liked the mellow brown glaze that blends well with my other collections. Thank you. Alicia
Alicia
Answer:
Alicia, Your 3 gallon crock was made in Red Wing Minnesota around 1880’s. You can find different designs with this bottom mark. A mint crock will have a value around $150 in mint condition with a crack depends on where it is down the $30-$50.
