(Reductionist hand-formed vessels and luminary objects in stoneware and
porcelain in which "less is more") (Techniques are not discussed; the
luminaries appear to be dotted with metallic lustre in some areas while
in others, the dots are thinned to permit the passage of light from
within the object.) (For English text, scroll down the page)

(Stoneware and Earthenware vessels, often very large, even huge,
sometimes with Hand-Twisted Copper handles on the teapot forms. Some
of Jone's work is glazed, but others are finished with gilt or oil
paints, and would appear to be for decorative use only.)
