Question:
Hello, We just aquired a piece of Redwing and wondering when it was made and if it is part of a set. And of course what is it worth ? The dimensions are 11 3/4 x 8 x 2 1/2 and light robin egg blue. Markings on bottom read Redwing USA M1486. Any info would be much appreciated, Thank you.
Answer: This console bowl is from 1955, Fleck Blue is the glaze. There are some candleholders that will go with it. Value is around 20.00 or so. thanks, steve n rose

We acquired this crock at auction, and was told by the auctioneer, afterward, that the glob of syrupy looking stuff under the glaze was called a "turkey dropping", and happened during the glazing process, and we sure were lucky to get that one. What’s the poop on this story? Is the "luck" real? Or is it all TS? (not bs, ts!) We don’t think we were fibbed to, but we lean toward skepticism with regard to any "luck" that comes our way at auctions. It’s really a great piece, though. We say "What a crock!" Thanks for your help. This info. site is outstanding!
I have an 8 gallon Red Wing butter churn without the lid which I would like to sell. It is marked with the blue number 8 and below that a red wing measuring 4" across. Below that is an oval stamp which reads Red Wing, Union Stoneware Co. Red Wing, Minn. There is a tight hairline crack on the rim just above the number 8. This churn measures 19 and 3/4 " in height. If you can give me a value I would very much appreciate it. Thank you!
Can you tell me what this crock is worth?

I have been told this bowl might be Red Wing. I can’t find any mention of spongeware pieces on this website, so now I am not sure. It is 10-1/2 in. wide and 4 in. high. Here are all 3 photos. Thank you for anything you can tell me about this blue and orange spongeware bowl. Sincerely, Lynn
