Question:

I have a footed compote which I believe dates to the 1960s or 1970s. The interior of the bowl is a bright butterscotch glaze. The exterior foot/base is a mottled cocoa color glaze. The bottom of the bowl is the same mottled cocoa color but it has parallel horizontal lines 1/16 inch from the base widening to 3/16 inch at the bottom of a 2 1/8 inch band of matte brown (milk chocolate) which forms the top trim. On the underside of the base is “Red Wing USA 879”.

Thank you in advance for your assistance in determining the name of the series, whether it was part of a dinner set, the date of issuance, the name of the designer, and its approximate value. Penny

Answer: the 879 is part of belle kogan’s “belle” line, circa 1964.  it’s artware.  value is around 50.00 or so.  thanks, steve n rose

Hi Guys -

About ‘Found Treasure’ in SW Florida.  Steve, we cannot determine if this is RW or Rumrill.  Mold # 599.  We believe you stated back in Nov approx value $65?

Have a terrific day,

Jerry + Kris

Answer: it’s a red wing product, but it’s rumrill, antique ivory is the glaze.  think this one should be worth around 90.00 or so.  thanks, steve n rose

Question:

this is a long shot….attached vase has similarities to other red wing pottery:

color, base and top lip shape, bottom foot, side scrolls.  it has USA and 864 or 664 in mold, very shallow and hard to see.

7 1/2″ x 7 1/2″ x 3″

could this be red wing?  the side scrolls have a bit of a leaf contour in them.  thank you so much…i’ve also checked camark and niloak to no avail.

thank you so much, jan.

Answer:

Hi Jan
it is similar to a lot of Red Wing, but the shape doesn’t look familiar to me, and the numbers don’t match anything in the books.  I would have guessed Camark as well.  sorry we can’t be of any more help.  thanks, steve n rose

Question:
I have a Red Wing vase that says Red Wing USA 1583 on the bottom. Can you advise the age and value and anything else that applies to the piece.  Thank you!

Answer:
Your vase dates to around 1958. You did not send a picture, but I am assuming it is one of the fleck glazes, very popular for many years.  Value is around $60.00 or so.
thanks, steve n rose

Question:
Hello,
I have been looking at your site and saw questions about pieces people have purchased.   I inherited 2 matched Red Wing U.S.A 662  vases.  They are about 10 inches tall and have a yellow/gold/brown kind of iridescent glaze.  They have a flange at the top. They are beautiful. Are these truly Red Wing Pottery?  I haven’t seen anything like them on the site.
Thank you, Barb B.

Answer:
I think these are part of the Doric line circa 1960.  The glaze sounds right, and the shape and height are correct. I would say value is around $120.00 for the pair.
thanks, steve n rose

Question:
I am looking for info on a purple to pink bowl with markings Red Wing 5011 including estimated value. It does have 2 hairline cracks.

Answer:
This is part of the Garden Club shapes, circa 1957.  With the cracks, value is minimal, maybe $5.00 or so.
