Red Wing 526

Question:
I have a Red Wing piece marked USA 526 and I am uncertain as to exactly what it is. It looks like either a platter or a shallow bowl. It is cream colored and has a scrolly/leaf pattern on it. Any ideas as to value? No chips. Val

Answer: Hi Val

You have a console bowl. It came with a flower frog in the shape of a deer, one of the most popular shapes Red Wing ever made. It was in production for over 10 years, and came in many colors. Value for the bowl alone is around 20.00. Thanks, steve n rose
