Red Wing 505 and 1348

Question:
I actually have 2 pieces I’d love to know about. The first is a vase, measuring 7 1/2" tall, green outside and pink inside, about 5" wide and marked 505, Red Wing USA. The mark was impossible to photo – very thickly covered with glaze. It has some crazing, mainly inside, but no chips or cracks. The 2nd is a low planter, gray outside and bright pink inside. It measures 12" x 8" x 2". This piece has a few usage scratches inside, and one small chip visible from the top. It is marked Red Wing USA 1348. I am including links to that one’s photos as it looks like I can only upload one here on your form. http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h284/miragenet/rwbowl.jpg http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h284/miragenet/rwbowlchip.jpg http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h284/miragenet/rwplantermark.jpg Thanks so much for any information you can give me.
