Damian Jones

Drawing inspiration from a wide range of influences—from the ornamentation of Italian Art Nouveau to the bold, tactile forms of East African tribal art—Jones’ work defies conventional aesthetics. The intricate bronze detailing, reminiscent of celestial patterns, imbues each piece with a luminous, jewel-like quality. The hand-placed tiles, often irregular and spontaneous in their arrangement, showcase subtle asymmetries that highlight the craftsmanship involved, offering a sense of authenticity that contrasts with the “mass-produced”.

Jones’ furniture balances a mid-century aesthetic with functionality, resulting in designs that are at once timeless and distinctly modern. Working primarily on commission, each project is a reflection of his unique process, where the form evolves organically, allowing spontaneity and precision to coexist in harmony.
