Powerful vintage ceramic face jug created by Dal Burtchaell, a maker associated with Georgia Folk Pottery traditions. This expressive hand-built piece features a boldly modeled face with pronounced nose, heavy brow, sculpted ears, and exposed teeth—classic elements of Southern folk face jugs.
Finished in a rich cobalt-blue glaze with earthy brown and olive tones that drip organically over the surface, this piece embodies the raw, visceral aesthetic prized in American folk and outsider art. Each detail reflects the artist’s hand and the spontaneous nature of studio firing.
A strong statement object for collectors of folk art, studio pottery, or Southern ceramics.
