Roy are you based in the UK?
Not that this precludes your jug being American but might make it a little more likely it's a Bohemian piece (although of course with Ebay it does mean that item travel from the US to here is more likely than in the past I guess)
I can't give you a definite on unribbed handles on that shaped jug, but I can tell you that Harrach definitely made jugs with plain blue handles on a different coloured body certainly in 1878 (I have one definitely dated and id'd) and I'm very sure later as well.
Ken thanks for that information
I think the blue handle is quite a different colour to the one I linked to but the iridescent crackle effect and colour does seem quite similar doesn't it? Were Boston and Sandwich known for making iridescent crackle glass? It's difficult without seeing the reference source, who knows whether the picture was identical to the ebayer's jug?
I have also seen overshot jugs (that appear crackled) listed as Phoenix but when I dug a little deeper I believe it transpired it was Harrach.
