American Toby Jug Museum 

Buccaneer character jug produced by Tilso of Japan circa 1980. Buccaneers were a kind of privateers or free sailors particular to the Caribbean Sea during the 17th and 18th centuries. First established on northern Hispaniola as early as 1625, their heyday was from the Restoration in 1660 until about 1688, during a time when governments were not strong enough and did not consistently attempt to suppress them. A large feather forms the handle of this jug.
