Vase, 1905-1920

Summary

Teco Pottery was a major provider of mid-price-level decorative ceramics for the home in the first two decades of the twentieth century. Because many of the shapes were based on architectural forms, Teco was the preferred line of ceramics of the Prairie School architects, including Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright, who designed a piece for the firm.
