Handmade Pottery Mottled Teal Glazed Devil Face Jug with Fangs by Billy Joe Craven

  

The "Billy Joe Jug" In 1794, Peter Craven, a potter and ancestor of Billy Joe Craven, arrived in the Northeastern part of the United States. As immigrants migrated South in the 1800's, the Craven family found the clay of North Georgia to be a source for making utilitarian pottery. The original focus was on functionality, any artistic appeal was a bonus to the Craven Pottery. Individual characteristics of each piece of pottery enabled each person to identify their person water or whiskey jug. This face jug has individual character like no other jug in the world.

This unique piece of pottery was handmade and signed by Billy Joe Craven. It was glazed and fired to 2300°F and is food safe. This face jug has plenty of personality and is a great example of folk art. The jug is glazed with a great mix of glazes.

He is a great size. It has a large impact without taking up a lot of shelf space.
