Question:
I have two statues, one a cowboy and one a cowgirl with sort of a light brown glaze. The coyboy is marked Red Wing USA, B 1415. The cowgirl is marked Red Wing USA, B 1414. She is in perfect condition but the cowboy has been broken and repaired. Could you please tell me anything about these? I know nothing about Red Wing except the name…other than the repaired piece is greatly reduced in value. Thank you, Lana Robertson
Answer: Hi Lana
Your figurines were designed by Belle Kogan, in 1952. The solid glazed ones, like you have are worth around 100.00 each, in perfect condition. so half that or less for the broken one. They are meant to be a pair. thanks, steve n rose

I have some artware pieces I have picked up at auctions and antique stores over the years. I would like to know the value and from what line they are from. I am attaching a picture and the numbers and sizes are as follows: 1160? 23 in glad vase, 426 plate, 861 71/4, 863 and 1054? 8 in and the swan 259? is 7 in. The blue sponge 863 has a very small white spot on the lip but it doesn’t appear to be a chip just where the paint didn’t cover. Thank you very much for your time. I love Redwing and grew up near there. Kathy S
I just purchased this #3 Minnesota stoneware oval, bottom marked, and very blue piece. The other outstanding feature is that one of the workers scribed some multiplication problem in the wet clay, which was glazed over. I was wondering what this might be worth, since the Minnesota oval is uncommon. The crock is in perfect condition, and the numbers scribed on do photograph. I hope its worth more than I paid for it….. Thanks Craig
Hi, this bowl was handed down to us several years ago. It was originally bought by my wife’s mother or grandmother, but we don’t really know when. It’s in perfect condition, the base is about 5" diameter, and it has a 12" diameter at the tips of the 16 spikes. The number under the base is M-1482. We’re interested in anything you can tell us about it. Thanks! Steve
Hi, I recently purchased this crock and I was hoping you may be able to tell me a little more about it and how much it may be worth. It appears in pretty good condition with normal wear. It measures 10 and 1/2 inches tall and 10 inches across the top. It has a cobalt blue marking on the front and something on the back that looks like numbers but they are hard to see. Thanks, Denise
