Southern folk art face jug by Marvin Bailey featuring a traditional tobacco-spit alkaline glaze, giving the surface a mottled brown and olive finish with darker pooling around the facial features. The jug has inset white clay eyes with dark pupils, deeply sculpted eyelids, a furrowed brow, flared nose, and applied C-shaped ears. Its open mouth features uneven stone or porcelain fragments used as teeth, with a flared base tapering to a narrow spout.
