Greenwichstone Pattern DinnerwareClick on any of the following images to view more information.A swirling, two-tone green glazes the Greenwichstone flatware while a darker green glazes the flatware edges and the serving pieces. Red Wing Potteries introduced their Ceramastone line of dinnerware in 1967. They used a heavier clay for this line and fired it at a much higher temperature, making for the first time actual stoneware dinnerware. These pieces are heavy and sturdy. Designed by Charles Murphy, All Ceramastone patterns employ complementary colors; all these nice, rich, earthy tones. Therefore, tables can be set that employ more than one, or indeed even all, of the patterns at the same time. All Ceramastone designs are oven-proof, colorfast and detergent safe. Red Wing Potteries gradually converted from producing stoneware to dinnerware and art pottery. Starting in the 1930's and through their closure in 1967, Red Wing Potteries produced over a hundred different dinnerware patterns. Forms ranged from traditional shapes to the whimsical. Patterns included every design from floral motifs to the abstract. They produced heavy ceramic, fine china and economy dinnerware sets. Some patterns consisted of mostly flatware with few serving pieces. Some patterns consisted of only serving pieces. Other patterns had both. On the bottom of most Red Wing dinnerware pieces you will find three little dots. These dots are left in the glaze by the little tripod that the Potteries used to support the piece when they fired it in the kiln. The three dots are not damage, they are a remnant of the manufacturing process and authenticate the piece as being actual Red Wing.
