This is the tall tumbler in the Reed pattern. It has the vertical ribs typical of all Reed pieces. This tumbler is glazed orange on the outside and white on the inside.

Red Wing Potteries started producing Reed pattern dinnerware in 1935. Reed came in five decorator colors: blue, yellow, orange, ivory and turquoise. Mixing bowls in Reed can also occasionally be found in russet glaze. All pieces are decorated with the characteristic reed design, parallel ribs or flutes.

Gypsy trail is the first dinnerware line produced by the Red Wing Potteries. It consists of four different patterns and related serving pieces.

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.
