1960s White Porcelain RUBBER BANDS jar, Designer Lagardo Tackett distributed through Freeman-Lederman

1960s - Designed by Lagardo Tackett
Porcelain - Made in the USA

Designer Lagardo Tackett started in California and was a student of the Mid-Century age. All the ceramic ware of his design, were the flawless creation of an accomplished modernist. Tack taught at the California School of Art, including one course he called “Three Dimensional Design” at his own kiln in Pasadena. The Tackett marketed the group’s pots under the name “Architectural Pottery,” and the pieces soon became the favorite accents of the California modernist architects for their Case Study houses.

Tack enjoyed devising storage containers for condiments, coffee, tea, sugar, flour, spices, oil, vinegar, and pasta. He designed canisters in the form of globes and cylinders with his characteristic cylindrical form. Others were set apart by whimsically scripted labels in the glaze and a bright red dot as found on the Freeman-Lederman sets. Wall-mounted porcelain holders for salt, toothpicks, and pencils were practical additions to the kitchen. These individual pieces and sets are highly sought after and collectible.
Interestingly, Lagardo Tackett's last family home in the 1980's was located in Wooster Square, New Haven, CT righ near us!

Piece is 2" high and 2 1/4" in diameter. In excellent condition with no chips or damage. Please see photos.
