Description
1960s Architectural Pottery White Ceramic Planter Attributed to Lagardo Tackett
Executed in matte white glazed ceramic. A very clean and increasingly rare example similar to the sought-after designs of Architectural Pottery collaborator LaGardo Tackett.
Drilled with three drill holes. Unmarked.
In 1950, Rita and Max Lawrence, along with design collaborators John Follis and Rex Goode, founded the Architectural Pottery company, transforming the landscape of ceramic design. The company rose to prominence when three of its minimalist planters were showcased in the Museum of Modern Art's inaugural Good Design exhibition, alongside creations by Ray and Charles Eames, Alexander Girard, and George Nelson.
