During a recent construction project on the Ohio River banks at Louisville, KY we unearthed hundreds of stoneware items ten to fifteen feet beneath ground level. This area had been a major river port over two hundred years ago. Among the items was a miniature jug complete with handle. In an oval it is marked Red Wing (twice) and Union Stoneware Co. It is in excellent shape. It is approx. three inches tall and appears to be a souvenier size????? Thanks for any information you may be able to provide. Fred

Question:
My neighbor has a partial set of redwing dinnerware and would like to find out the pattern name and value if possible. All of the pieces have the same background color and glaze, a beige speckled color. All of the pieces have a blue and tan striped rug on them also. Pieces then also have either an early American style rocking chair and eagle, a spinning wheel or a round decorative table on them. The pieces she has showed me all say RED WING HAND PAINTED OVENPROOF U.S.A. The bread plate is number 232, a large soup bowl, which is a triangular shape, is number 240 and the salad plate has no number.She has 6 cereal bowls, 5 coffee cups, salt & pepper set with eagle on, 7 dinner plates, 6 salad plates, 8 saucers, 2 large soup bowls, gravy bowl w/lid and a large serving bowl w/lid. Some of the pieces do have chips in them. Thank you for your help.
