Haeger Modernist Architectural Vase with Matte White Glazing (LEO Design)

 

We come back to Haeger Pottery with this Modernist piece, made in the Sixties or Seventies.  It is a highly-architectural silhouette—with more than a passing resemblance to Frank Lloyd Wright's Guggenheim Museum on Fifth Avenue, New York City.  Although it is firmly within the Modernist sensibility, there is still a trace of the "long tail" of the Art Deco movement (which began in the Twenties and lingered-on, evolving, yes, well into the Fifties and Sixties).  It is finished with a matte white glaze.  Click on the photo above to learn more about this handsome vase.

More simple, white pottery tomorrow.
