Umbrella Stand/Floor Vase

Question:
Can you tell me the age of the piece I have enclosed pictures of? Also, how much should I sell it for at a yard sale? My great aunt had this piece in her home. She used it as an umbrella stand. It is 22" tall, the base is 91/2, and the top is 9 3/4". It is green with a dimpled finnish. There are several markings both on the top and bottom which can be seen in the pictures. Thank you for all your help. Lorraine Steiner

vase is marked “4688P”

Question:
This very tall (14") vase is marked "4688P"; is there any rhyme or reason to the Redwing numbering system? Can you tell me anything else about this beautiful vase? Thanks. C. Lambrecht

Answer: Hello

Red Wing’s numbering system is for the most part low to high, low numbers being from early production, to higher, later on. Some numbers were reused, so it’s not always true. I don’t recognise this as being a Red Wing product. Nice size and form, but I’m not sure who made it, wish I could be of more help. thanks, steve n rose
