Kate Jones last year celebrated 25 years of glassmaking in Rosedale. In 1995, in partnership with Stephen Gillies, she established Gillies Jones ! a hot glass studio in Rosedale Abbey, North York Moors, specialising in Swedish Overlay. Drawing inspiration from the elemental patterns and histories of the North Yorkshire Moors that surround the studio and from their commitment to the demanding skill of hot glass, they have created distinctive range of unique works which are in numerous museum collections, including the V&A, and a range of recognisable limited batch production bowls.
Kate has lectured in the UK for the Crafts Council and the British Council overseas. She studied Fine Art at Stourbridge College of Art and Glass at Brierley Hill and masterclasses at North Lands. https://www.gilliesjonesglass.co.uk |
