Question:
Greetings. I have a piece of Red Wing pottery that I have been curious about. I would call it (though I am no expert) "Deco Style". It is a pitcher, about 6" high, 9" wide. The body of the pitcher is "flying saucer" shaped with a double handle. The glaze appears to be somewhere between a matte and gloss finish. The color is black, or dark gray, somewhat like a gun barrel gray. It is marked on the bottom "Red Wing USA" along with the numbers 1580. They are all in a raised lettering. It is in mint condition with no cracks or chips. I have attached a picture. I thank you for your help and knowledge. Sincerely, Nancy Witham
Answer: Hi Nancy, it is an interesting shape, I would agree, somewhat deco-ish. It was designed in 1958, so it’s more of an atomic age design. Black is the glaze color. It has a value of around 50.00. thanks for the pic and good description. steve n rose
I have a partial Red Wing dinnerware set, which is not in the best of condition. I would like to know more info about the pieces and if there is any value to them anymore. I have 8 plates, many have chips or cracks in them; 4 coffee cups in good condition; and a sugar dish with no lid and both handles broken off. These pieces all have the dk. pink rose pattern. The creamer dish has a yellow tulip.
Hi. I also have another crock that I was wondering what its worth is. This is in great shape. No cracks so far.
I have a 5 gallon redwing that is double-stamped accidently by the company. What is it worth. It has cracks in the bottom,and wonder if I should have it repaired professionally.
I would like you to look at 4 pieces of stoneware in the picture. The top left is a 3 gallon salt glazed crock, in mint condition, with a cobalt 3 and a lazy 8. It also has 2 incised lines near the top. The top right is also a 3 gallon salt glazed with a cobalt 3 and what I think is called a target or beesting. It has a one inch shallow chip on the rim in the front. On the bottom right is a 3 gallon jug with a lazy 8 and the target/beesting. It has one small shallow chip on the shoulder. This jug has an incised H near the bottom. On the bottom left is a 5 gallon salt glazed butter churn with a deep chip on the front. Are any of these Redwing? If not, would you have an idea of the maker. Any information and values would be greatly appreciated! Thank you very much!
