A face jug is a jug pottery which depicts a face. Early examples date from the 14th century, with production of modern versions in the US states of North and South Carolina and Georgia started in the 1940s.

The Coventry Herbert Art Gallery and Museum exhibits a rare medieval face jug unearthed beside the site of the local Benedictine priory.
