The Jug Up for bid here is a double-face or "politician" face jug. I really don't make many of these because they just take so long. Once I start a face, I usually like to complete the face, spouts, handle--JUG-- in one sitting. Otherwise I have a terrible time returning to it to wrap up the finishing touches... I have a painfully short attention span... Therefore, I have to be really energized and inspired to knock out both faces in one night after working my day job.The jug is a great size--9.5" tall. This 9-10" range is really my favorite size to make. The larger jugs certainly are impressive, but there is something more intimate about this slightly smaller size; it invites you to pick it up and hold it in a way that the larger ones simply don't.The jug is glazed in two different homemade ash glazes. The central glaze is a satin finish and the running or dripping oil-stain ash is a high gloss. It is in the monkey or harvest style with two spouts.The jug is signed on the bottom: "JC Mahlke The Yankee Potter 12-11."

My name is Jason Mahlke, and I am a self taught potter. I turn the pots in my basement, create thefaces at my kitchen
