Forma Coffee Server – Schmid International – LaGardo Tackett – 1958
Designer LaGardo Tackett, whose studio in California began producing wonderful architectural pottery in the early 1950’s, did the Forma line of utilitarian ware for Schmid International begining in 1958. This line was distributed in the United States by Richards Morgenthau who operated Raymor.
This is one of the most sculptural coffee servers I have ever seen. I was fortunate enough to run upon this one on a trip into Southern West Virginia a few weeks ago.
