- Face Jug #2 by Lanier Meaders is part of Georgia's State Art Collection. Clay, 10 x 7 (diameter) inches
Photograph of a face jug by Cheever Meaders. It is a brown jug with a narrow opening at the top. Slanted oval eyes are topped with curved eyebrows. A downturned mouth contains a few small teeth. In 1920 Cheever Meaders inherited the family pottery at Mossy Creek, Georgia. As local demand for food-related wares declined, tourists and crafts enthusiasts became their main customers. - External Identifiers:
