Twelve Inch Blue-Banded Mixing Bowl
This is a large, twelve inch, mixing bowl with the blue banding decoration. It is decorated on the lower outside portion by vertical ribs and two blue bands on the shoulder. There is some minor pitting on the inside of the bowl and a small, 1/2 inch, flake on the outside foot.
As soon as the Red Wing stoneware companies started making larger, utilitarian stoneware they made smaller stoneware pieces for use in the kitchen and on the table. The stoneware companies of Red Wing, Minnesota produced stoneware items shortly after their inception in 1877 until the mid-1940's. The shapes of these items ranged widely. However, one overriding attribute describes them all: they were designed to be used. In fulfilling the needs of a developing America, the stoneware companies were hugely successful and their wares were very popular. The popularity of their wares has only increased over time making collecting Red Wing a growing field and exciting hobby!
