Question:
I picked up a piece of pottery at a thrift store today which is marked "Red Wing USA 430" on the bottom. It is a very unusual design. It is a square, about 8" tall and 2" wide, which is slightly smaller on the front than the back (the sides slope front to back). There is a square cut out in the center with a bird figurine perched on it. It is green on the outside and yellow on the inside. The finish is a shiny glaze – the pottery under the glaze is white. It’s in pretty good condition, although the bird has a small chip off the end of the wing in the back. I can send a picture if you need one as soon as I dig up some batteries for the camera, although it’s so unusual I would think you could work off of the description! I would love to know anything about this piece. Thank you!
Answer: No pic is necessary, your description is very good (a shape number is even better). It was designed in 1953. The glaze color is called Woodland Green. It’ is an unusual shape. They have a value of around 65.00 or so. thanks, steve n rose
I have not been able to identify this piece through any of the redwing books or anything I can find on the web. Can you help me. A friend of my aunts said this had belonged to her grandmother. Thank you
I recently purchased a crock at an auction and would like to know more about it and its value. I believe it is a beater jar or a butter drum. I believe it is one gallon. It has a chip at the bottom of the crock. The bottom shows it was made by Minnesota Stoneware Co Red Wing. Thank you. Susan Pictures attached.
I I’m from Mexico and recently my sister’s mother in law sold to me a lot of pottery and fine china porcelain pottery whit them was a dinnerware set of red wing,so i’d like to know how much aprox. costs now days.
I am curious about a piece of Red Wing pottery that I have. I believe it is a sauce boat? Length overall from lip to handle-10 inches, width-7 inches, height-5 inches to top of handle. Bottom is stamped, RED WING USA, M1572. Any idea of age, history, value?
Is this a Red Wing pottery piece? And if it is what is the approximate value? It is 8 1/2 inches tall. No chips or cracks. Detailed Indian side portrait. Detailed handle with bumps down the handle with an Indian head at the top of the handle. No markings on base. The opposite side has detailed teepees and trees.
Hello To All, I have is lamp.. with an awesome glaze. At first I thought it was Stangl with a Rust glaze. Another collector was visiting and we were doing show and tell with mystery pots and out came this lamp. He said right off.. Red Wing.. and the glaze is super rare.. thus may question.. Can you clear up the mystery? Is this a Redwing lamp.. The lamp shape is indeed in the Ray Reiss book on page 94 lower left.. with number 24B.. this lamp itself is numbered 1094. I can not find any examples of this glaze on any item in the Riess book.. Thank You in Advance
