Question:
I’ve got a large jug, 17 inches tall and 10 inches at the base, it weights about 19 pounds. It came to me from my grandmother, who lived in Ohio and Kentucky, that’s all I know about it. There are no maker marks that I can find, but there is a blue abstract design and some "drips". I’ve attached one pic, I have more if needed.
Answer: Your have a 4 gallon salt glazed beehive jug that was made either in Ohio or it could be from the Western Stoneware Company. It is not a Red Wing jug, but still a nice salt glazed beehive. Al Kohlman
