Known for his use of ancient wood-firing technique - his singular, imposing work spans sculptures, furniture, and vessels.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCross was immediately drawn to the ancient process of wood-firing, which gives each piece a patina that evokes ancient artifacts, old stone structures or discarded post-apocalyptic future relics. His vessels suggest simple minimalism, evoking geology, science fiction and modern art. His sculptural pieces, bold and primitive in their forms, combine a modern sensibility with textural materiality. His printmaking background also remains evident in his pieces, which favor strong silhouettes, hard edge lines and repetitive leitmotif.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e#17 (on left): Approx 2 1\/4\" tall x 2 1\/4\" wide\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e#18 (on right): Approx 2 1\/4\" tall x 2 1\/2\" wide\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jonathan Cross Studio","offers":[{"title":"17","offer_id":40838684737585,"sku":"jcs-50","price":180.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"18","offer_id":40838684770353,"sku":"jcs-51","price":180.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0116\/4592\/files\/20251021-GSProducts10.21.250092.jpg?v=1762721174","url":"https:\/\/shop-generalstore.mom\/products\/ceramic-cup-17-18","provider":"General Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
