Many pottery finds remain mysteries and this work fits in that category. We hope that additional information will emerge; any information is appreciated so please let us know if you can help.
The item is clearly signed by Paul Jones, and indicates PEI as the place of creation. No date is indicated. The clay appears to be moderately grogged, which is not commonly used by beginning potters. The semi-closed form also shows good throwing skills by the potter suggesting the work is perhaps that of a skilled potter and not student work. No other items by Paul Jones have been located yet.
Gary Caroll indicated in 2021, "Here are 2 photos of a small vase I have had for many years." Thanks to Gary for both locating the work and providing the photos.
