Head vases—decorative planters featuring a head—are in demand by collectors

Head vases, or decorative planters, cover a broad range of styles — from babies to ladies. Some rare examples of famous celebrities command much higher prices. These affordable collectible vases were produced mainly in the 1950s and 60s with an average retail price of $45.00. Most of the head vases were imported from Japan and often used by florists. They vary in size from 2 to 9 inches high (tall).

The most exciting head vase sold from HH Antiques was a 4″ Lucille Ball with a selling price of $95.00 in 1998.

Please note! Due to the popularity of head vases today, many of these items have been reproduced. We advise that you buy from a reputable dealer.
