2 Gallon Beehive Stoneware Jug Hand Painted Cobalt Script c. 1890
Add a premier collector's piece to your primitive Americana collection with this gorgeous antique 2-gallon beehive stoneware jug. Dating to the late 19th century, this piece features a classic sloped "beehive" shape that tapers down to a robust, heavy base.
The front face showcases a stunning, hand-applied cobalt blue slip script "2" detailing its liquid capacity. Finished in a beautifully textured salt-glaze with natural iron spotting, this heavy utility jug was originally used to store farm cider, molasses, or spirits. It makes an outstanding accent piece next to a stone hearth, grounding an entryway display, or serving as a high-end country primitive focal point.
