This vintage Haeger pottery vase features a dramatic fan-form silhouette in a soft ivory glaze, with deeply molded vertical ribbing and a wide, scalloped rim. The sculptural body has a strong Art Deco influence, with clean architectural lines and a symmetrical profile that gives the piece a bold decorative presence. The ivory glaze softens the geometric form, creating a refined contrast between the sharp molding and the smooth, glossy surface.
The underside is marked Haeger USA, consistent with American art pottery production of the mid-20th century. Pieces of this type are often associated with Haeger’s mid-century decorative output, when sculptural ceramic forms with Deco and modernist influence were especially popular.
Vases like this were produced as decorative home accents and display pieces, valued for their form as much as their function. The combination of a fan-form profile, stepped base, and creamy monochrome glaze makes this an eye-catching example of mid-century American pottery, even with condition issues.

History & Collectibility
Haeger was one of the best-known American pottery manufacturers of the 20th century, producing a wide range of decorative ceramics that blended popular design trends with accessible home décor. Their mid-century pieces often drew on earlier Art Deco and streamlined forms, resulting in sculptural vases and planters that remain highly collectible today.
Examples with strong molded geometry and monochrome glazes continue to appeal to collectors of American art pottery, as well as buyers drawn to Deco-inspired interiors. Even damaged examples can retain decorative value when the form is especially striking, as is the case here.
