4 gallon crock, Macomb Pottery
Question:
My husband and I found this beautiful salt-glazed 4-gal. crock recently. Its 12" tall and 10-1/3" across the top – great condition, color and texture. It is not marked, except for the cobalt decorations on front. No cracks, 2 small flakes off the top edge. Inside is gorgeous, with deep cobalt blue over a brown slip glaze. Rings seen inside, some reverse spattering of brown slip glaze inside, too. Can you tell me if its Red Wing or possibly Macomb Pottery? We’ve been told its either one or the other???? Thanks! Carol

Brown Bowl with stripes
Question:
How can I tell if the bowls I have are Red Wing if there are no markings? I’ve uploaded one photo and included a link to my Picasa web album. You will need to remove the spaces I’ve added. I wasn’t sure if the link would block this request. These bowls were my great grandmothers. My mom (born in 1924) grew up watching her make bread in the larger bowl. We are getting ready to auction them in my mother’s moving sale/auction. You may also call me at 316-841-3536. Thank you. http:// picasaweb. google.com /teresahansen/Bowls
