Red Wing Bird of Paradise Collection

Question:
Hope the picture can do justice to the items. We have three pieces of pottery I suspect may be Belle Kogan and from the same set. The bowl and the vase are green with yellow inside and I think the are "Bird of Paradise".

 

Answer: You are correct, they are from Kogan’s tropicanna line, circa 1950. Mint green is the glaze color, and "bird of paradise" is the design. Values would be around 60.00 for all three. thanks, steve n rose

Question:
Please provide information and approximate value for Red Wing Vase # 1376. Little over 11" tall, not sure how to describe–swirl effect, handles on either side. Small chip on under side of base–barely visible-more noticed if you run finger around base of vase. Belonged to Grandmother. Cinnamon color? Thank you.
