Vintage Haeger Madonna and Child Planter. Measures 11" in height. Excellent condition but I could not get the inside clean.
This striking 11-inch planter is a classic example of the mid-century religious art produced by the renowned Haeger Potteries. The piece features a gracefully stylized Madonna cradling the Christ child, rendered with the minimalist, fluid lines characteristic of Haeger’s Mid-Century Modern aesthetic. The entire sculpture is enveloped in a brilliant, high-gloss glaze that emphasizes its sculptural silhouette and smooth surfaces, making it as much a work of fine art as it is a functional vessel.
As a "scholarly curiosity," this planter carries a sense of quiet, academic gravitas, fitting perfectly into a Dark Academia study or a traditional sanctuary space. Its presence evokes the mid-century era's sophisticated approach to devotional decor. The exterior is in excellent vintage condition, free of chips or crazing, and retains its original depth of color. While the interior shows signs of previous botanical use that have proven difficult to remove, these "found-history" markings remain entirely hidden when the planter is in use. It is a soulful find for collectors of Haeger pottery or those looking to add a touch of mid-century spiritual elegance to their home.
This item is vintage, approximately 60 years old.
