What a great 2nd Presentation on “Haeger Pottery- The History & Legacy”. Special thanks to Philip Aleo, Chicago author who presented along with Joe Cordero, owner of J & S River Antique in Algonquin, for his beautiful array of Haeger pieces, and Alexandra Haeger-Estes, great granddaughter of the founder. So much history detailed in the presentation. Last but not least the wonderful desserts that were prepared by our Chef Carlos and his team. They were phenomenal!
