Description
This jug is attributed to the St. John's Stone Chinaware Company, but more likely was made for the company, rather than by the company. It bears similarities to the collection of stoneware jugs by an unknown maker in the museum's collection. The Stone Chinaware company predominantly produced iron ware in white and blue, with minimal decorative elements.
