Specialty Dinnerware ItemsClick on any of the following images to view more information.Red Wing Potteries produced a great amount of dinnerware as part of their formal dinnerware patterns. What is not as well known is that Red Wing Potteries also produced amounts of dinnerware items for special occasions, companies, restaurant chains or designers. While widely varied in their design and components, these dinnerware items are also uniquely Red Wing and represent an exciting and challenging collecting avenue. 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.
