Haeger Pottery Speckled Ribbed Pitcher

This ceramic pitcher is a late 20th-century piece from Haeger Pottery, specifically dated to 1993. It features a bulbous body with pronounced horizontal ribbing or concentric rings that provide a tactile, artisanal texture. The vessel is finished with a neutral, oatmeal-colored glaze containing fine brown speckling, typical of contemporary studio-style production. The upper neck and interior exhibit a smooth, slightly darker contrasting glaze with a subtle sheen. Construction includes a sturdy, ergonomic arched handle attached at the rim and shoulder, and a flared rim with a small integrated pouring spout. The base narrows to a stable foot. The piece demonstrates high-quality industrial craftsmanship with uniform glazing and balanced proportions. In terms of condition, the item appears well-maintained with no visible chips, cracks, or significant crazing, though light surface shelf wear on the unglazed base would be expected for its age. The style is reflective of the modern traditional aesthetic popular in the early 1990s American pottery market.
