Question:

I have a crock that is salt glazed with what looks like the number 4 on it. It would hold about 4 gallons (almost 12” tall). I think it might be Red Wing, but not sure.

Thanks,

Cassie

Answer:

Cassie, well the handle does look to be Red Wing.  The cut line is not normally seen on Red Wing pieces, but this could have been a potter from another pottery that came to Red Wing.  With all this being said, I am going to change my mind on your piece and go with Red Wing.  Value $175 to $200.  Al Kohlman
