Haeger Flower Frogs
David Haeger grew his company from a brickyard he purchased in 1871, and it remained in operation through 2016. But it was his son, Edmund Haeger, who introduced Haeger art pottery in 1914. Since that time Haeger pieces have reflected art movements ranging from Arts & Crafts to Art Deco to Mid-Century Modern and beyond. Many pieces might be viewed as caricatures of these movements, very outspoken and fun to collect!
Martin Stangl left Fulper Pottery and came to work for Haeger in 1914, and was influential in the design and success of Haeger's art pottery line. He left Haeger when he purchased Fulper in 1924.
The name "Royal" was affixed to the name of most art pottery pieces beginning after Royal Hickman started design work for Haeger in 1939. Numbers for pieces produced under the name of "Royal Haeger" were given the prefix R, e.g., R-360 Tropical Fish Flower Block.
Definition of Flower Frog: I only collect pieces with holes extending through their bottoms that were designed to sit in water. It's how flower frogs got their name! However, many collectors use a much broader definition, so I have included vases with multiple holes designed to hold flower stems.
Impressed Logo and Red Clay: Pieces that have an impressed Haeger diamond logo on the bottom, and/or were made with red clay, are among the earliest pieces of Haeger art pottery with production beginning in 1914.
Glazes: There are a gazillion Haeger glazes and many collectors enjoy identifying them. Catalogs often list the glazes available for particular pieces; other times they simply list the glazes available for the items appearing in the catalog.
However, many of the early glaze descriptions are ambiguous. And many could have been described in catalogs that have never been found, so we have to be careful not to mismatch them to known glazes. And finally, they were all applied by hand so we never see two pieces alike.
I give the name of the glaze for each piece I feel somewhat confident about, but it is never more than a best guess.
To see a list of Haeger glazes with examples, visit the Haeger Glaze Gallery on HaegerAshtrays.com.
Names: From one catalog to another Haeger was often inconsistent in naming its pieces, and some were only given a number. I have assigned a brief name to each piece that I think best identifies it.
Aliases: In some cases the various names given to a piece vary so greatly that one might not realize they are the same piece. In these cases, I have listed aliases.
Sources: When I have been able to find a piece in a catalog, I list the catalog(s) along with the piece. When I have only been able to find a piece in a book, I list the book by a brief title in italics. For more information on the books please see Identification Resources.

[Peter Christensen]
Three Distinct Shapes
I call the shapes Parted Wings, Semi-Parted Wings, and Closed Wings because if you own a swan or have a photo taken from above it's the most obvious distinction between them. However, you can also distinguish the difference from just about any photo if you know what to look for.
Early Catalog No. 17
Sources: I have found the swan in the 1922 Catalog [1], Early Brochure [1], Early Catalog Number 17 [1], 1930 Catalog [1], 1939 Fall Catalog [1], and 1940 Catalog Number 110 [1].
Early Catalog Number 17 clearly pictures the Parted Wings shape, and the 1940 Catalog Number 110 clearly pictures the Closed Wings shape. In the 1922 Catalog and Early Brochure, I can't distinguish between the Parted and Semi-Parted Wings shapes, but the illustrations are clearly not of the latter Closed Wings shape.
The illustration in the 1930 Catalog is an anomaly. It clearly shows parted wings, and yet shows 4 holes per side as is found on the Closed Wings shape. The holes are badly misplaced, and I suspect they were created by the illustrator. Perhaps this illustration represents a transition to the Closed Wings shape.
Parted Wings Shape: Wings fully parted; rounded tail turns up; deep notch in lily pad; 6 holes
Semi-Parted Wings Shape: Wings part behind neck; cone-shaped tail; notch in lily pad; 6 holes
Closed Wings Shape: Wings fully closed; cone-shaped tail; no notch in lily pad; 8 holes
Parted Wings Shape: Curved beneath down-turned head; two sets of feathers in wings; narrow, up-turned tail
Semi-Parted Wings Shape: Curved beneath down-turned head; two sets of feathers in wings; cone-shaped tail
Closed Wings Shape: Straight and horizontal beneath head; one set of feathers in wings; cone-shaped tail
Parted Wings Shape: Bottom solid
Semi-Parted Wings Shape: Bottom open
Closed Wings Shape: Bottom partially closed
And finally, overall size and height vary too, with the oldest shape being the smallest and the newest being the largest.
Parted Wings, Semi-Parted Wings, and Closed Wings Shapes

Haeger Swan No. 57
Strawberries & Cream Glaze
I was thrilled to recently acquire this example of one of the rarest of all Haeger glazes. Yes, there were one-of-a-kind experimental glazes. But this was an actual production run, albeit believed to be a trial run of only around a half-dozen and sold only in the factory showroom briefly in 1930.
It was almost immediately dubbed the "Chicken Pox glaze" by snickering showroom staff, and didn't sell well. As Margaret Walsh humorously writes in Glazes of the American Art Potteries:
"Strawberries and Cream was one of four glazes designed for the explicit purpose of attracting a younger, less sophisticated buyer to Haeger art pottery. And that it did! According to Karen Thornson, long-time clerk in Haeger's factory showroom, the only two examples sold were 'purchased by mothers with children in tow.'"
Only two examples are known to exist today. The one documented in Margaret Walsh's book, and the one I bought in a thrift shop in Battle Ground, WA, for $5. It is not known if those that didn't sell to the public were sold to employees for a token price, or simply destroyed. If they were destroyed, we owe the existence of the two that survived to the children who saw them in the factory showroom.

No. 59 Round
Identification: This is an extremely difficult piece to collect because it has to be identified among a gazillion other similar flower frogs. Because of this, most examples are accompanied by a well-known Haeger bowl of the same glaze. See Additional Examples, below.
When searching for the flower frog, the most obvious characteristic to look for is a known Haeger glaze. Other characteristics are the indented ring around the perimeter of the top, the shape of the bottom, and a ring halfway down the side that runs around the perimeter. I suspect this is formed at the joining of the upper and lower halves of a clamshell-shapped mold.
Sources: 1922 Catalog [1], Early Catalog Number 17 [1]
Variations: Note that the size and number of holes varies. The larger sizes have 8 holes; the smaller sizes have 7 holes. (The perspective of the below photo is misleading in terms of size. Additional views and measurements may be found here.
