27 Various Miniature Forms
Holly Beach, New Jersey
Camden, New Jersey
By Joseph Jones
Circa 1893
Each base signed J. Jones with one signed Jos. Jones; most signed Holly Beach, New Jersey and one Camden. The wood used to create each piece is identified on the bottom with many dated 1893. Woods such as peach, dogwood, holly; white mahogany, cedar and cherry are among others used by the artist. We do not know if the competent Jones created these as souvenirs to be sold to tourists or if the work was a hobby. These highly successful forms range in height from 1.5-inches to 5 5/8-inches and remain in fine original condition.
