The next firing is Friday, July 11th. Doors open at 8am. It is our annual collector's firing. This year is our 12th anniversary, and we have stamped all of the pieces with the limited edition 12th anniversary stamp. Again, the potters have made a very limited quantity of bottom numbered pieces.  See images below.

June 28 Sesquicentennial Event:  See images below. Thanks to everyone who was up early to get the chance to buy a piece. We sold them all out within an hours time. There were about 100 people in line when we opened the door at 9am.

eBay Auction: The ten Sesquicentennial pieces for the ebay auction are #39, 42, 48, 72, 81, 98, 105, 112, 119, and 133, with the last auction ending July 3.  The minimum bid for each piece is $69.95.

Thank you all for your continued interest in our Pottery. We are very proud to continue the tradition of making Red Wing Pottery.

Sincerely, Scott Gillmer

July 11 Annual Collector's Firing:  Note that these pieces have not been fired yet so the color and texture of the clay body is not salt-glazed yet.

Alex Wilson with his bottom numbered pieces. Alex threw two sets of six face jugs. One set is around a 1 gallon size, and the other set is about 1 to 2 quarts in size. Again, this picture was taken prior to the firing so the pieces have not been salt glazed yet.
Mark Connolly with some of his large jars. There are six of them and they are bottom numbered.
Scott Keith's numbered pieces. On the bottom shelf there are 6 large vases and a second set of six of some face vases. There are 3 kings and 3 queens.
Mark Connolly with one of his covered jars. Again they are bottom numbered and limited to just six pieces. You will note that mark is standing inside our Salt kiln which he is in the process of loading.
