Included in this lot is a two gallon red wing glazed crock, originating from the early 20th century. Red Wing Union Stoneware, now Red Wing Pottery, refers to American stoneware, pottery, or dinnerware items made by a company initially set up in Red Wing, Minnesota, in 1861 by German immigrant John Paul. The company changed its names several times until they finally settled on Red Wing Potteries, Inc. in 1936. The pottery factory that started in 1861 continues to the present day under the names of Red Wing Pottery and Red Wing Stoneware. The crock is marked across the front, reading "2 Union Stoneware Co. Red Wing, Minn". The piece shows a glazed exterior with a lip. The crock shows good condition overall, with some light wear due to age. The stoneware measures 9 3/4" in diameter by 10 1/2" tall.
