Question:
This is for Al Kohlmann, Hi Al, I have this 5, gallon beehive stoneware jug and I have two questions to ask. Is this a Red Wing stoneware piece? The numbering design on it is similar to Red Wing stoneware. My other question is would you have any idea of what it would be worth? It has a small chip on the mouth of the jug.

15 gallon 10 gallon crocks and Ko-Rec Feeders

Question:
I have two Red Wing stoneware jars. One has the number 15 on it and the other has the number ten. Both had a red wing stenciled on them. The 15 also has a 1915 patent stencil and an oval stating Red Wing Union Stoneware Co. Red Wing MN. They are not broken but one of the wire handles on the 15 is gone. Glaze is good. I have two KO-REC feeders. They are clean and the trays are not broken. One wire handle is missing. I could not upload a photo for some reason but I could send a photo, separately, to an e-mail address if I knew of one. THanks. Ken Greethurst, Urbandale, IA

The mark states on the side as does it on the bottom : Red Wing Stoneware Co. Red Wing, Minn. Thank you for anything you might be able to fill me in on.

Red WIng 1102 or 1109 stamped

Question:
I have a beautiful Red Wing vase. Green outside, pink inside with leaves starting on the sides and kind of wrapping around – both sides. I have never seen another like it, either on Ebay or otherwise. It is stamped 1102 or 1109, cannot tell for sure. Think it is a 2 though. It is in pristine condition, no chips, no cracks, no flaws. Is this vase valuable? Thank you so much. Deb

 

Answer: Hi Deb

I think you have the 1102, from around 1941. Not terribly rare, but it is easily chipped. Value is around 45.00. thanks, steve n rose
