Large glittery glaze ram jug, J mark, ID help

Does anyone know who this could possibly be by, I have only found 1 reference to it which states it is a redware jug & is early 20th century but doesn't give any more info than that, I am am dubious as to whether it is redware as the glaze as it has a glittery finish to it. Its lacking its stopper as the one I found had a circular shape stopper. There is an impressed J to the belly, any help identifying would be appreciated

Somehow reminds me of Portuguese ceramics?

I thought it had a European feel to it, I was hoping Scandinavian but could be Portuguese, who knows???

If you google "OLD RARE GLAZED REDWARE POTTERY JUG PITCHER RAM" in google images you'll see another one, which has a stopper in the hole on the back.
It might be of Mediterranean origin (the ram looks a bit Greek to me) used for oil or other condiment.

That will be the one reference I found, shame it doesn't give more info.
