Handmade Two Faced Ceramic Devil Jug “Mxiii” – One-of-a-Kind Grotesque Face Sculpture Art Pottery

This extraordinary hand-sculpted face jug is a contemporary work of art pottery signed Mxiii. Meticulously crafted from glazed ceramic, it features two expressive demonic faces fused together, each with wildly exaggerated eyes, snarling mouths, and gruesomely detailed teeth. The artist has captured the tension of duality — rage and torment — through expert anatomical modeling and layered glaze work.

A twisting tentacle-form handle emerges from the side, complementing the fleshy red textures that wrap around the jug’s surface. The neck is topped with a removable stopper painted in yellow-and-black hazard stripes, adding an industrial sci-fi edge that contrasts the organic grotesquerie of the faces.

The piece displays exceptional craftsmanship and imagination — a striking example of contemporary “monsterware” or Southern-inspired modern face jugs, where folk tradition meets surrealist horror.
