Provincial Cookware Caserole, side marked
Question:
I have recently purchased a set of Red Wing Provincial Ware. There is a covered casserole, marked 19 on the side, and six covered marmites (?) marked 22 on the sides. They are unglazed on the outside, but do have glaze on the inside and covers. When I first saw them I thought they would be great for making baked french onion soup in the oven, but I suspect they are 1940s vintage and wonder if I should because of value or safety. Any help you could offer regarding value, care and use in this mannor would be appreciated. Thank you. Patrick

We were hoping you could help us.

Design No 1, planter
Question:
I recently got what I believe is a planter when my grandfather died. I was told it was a Red Wing piece, but it does not have a red wing stamp. I tried to get my photos on here, but I am having troubles so bear with me. It is a cream colored planter. It is in the shape of the bust of a female. The plant goes in through a hole in the top back of the head. The female has shoulder length hair with a light wave. There is a bow or hair clip of some sort on the right side of her hair. The paint has worn off of the hair piece as well as her shoulder which has a pink sleeve. Her eyes are looking up. They are blue and she has long eyelashes. Her lips are the same pink as her bow and sleeve. She also has large blue pearls around her neck. The planter is slightly taller than the length of my hand. The the bottom of the inside is stamped with "Design No 1" and "U.S.A" in a cursive font. The stamp can be seen in reverse on the outer bottom. If you have any info about this piece please let me know. I love this piece whether or not it is Red Wing, but it would be nice to know one way or another.
