12 Gallon Jane Lew, WV Storage Jar: Large Blue Decorated Stoneware

Stoneware manufactured in Jane Lew, West Virginia is highly coveted, and blue decorated pieces of this size are exceedingly rare. This particular storage jar sat for decades in Buckeye, West Virginia in the breezeway between Janelle Tibbs’s house and garage. Longtime Greenbank, West Virginia antique collectors Jim and Katie Sheppard purchased this superb piece directly from Ms. Tibbs. The flower depicted here is the elusive lady slipper, and the jar’s attractive cinnamon colored glaze is the major identifying factor of Jane Lew stoneware.
