robineau porcelains 
Mrs. Adelaide ALsop-Robiiieau 
was represented at the Art Palace 
by s e V e n small experimental 
pieces. The illustrations show 
her later work. The body is of 
porcelain fired at cone 9. The 
glazes are mat, the only worl^ of 
this kind at St. Louis being in the 
French section of the Art Palace 
and the Sevres exhibition at "Le 
Petit Trianon." 
The pieces are thrown by 
Mrs. Robineau and the designs 
carved — most of the decoration 
being of straight line ornament 
of Indian inspiration. The mat 
is quite different from any mat on 
a pottery body, having the texture 
rather of a fine skin, delightful to

from a grey cream to orange brown. Mrs. Robineau's crystal- 
line glazes were not shown at St. Louis, but a few were shown 
and sold at the late exhibit of the Art Institute in Chicago. 
They are similar to those in foreign exhibits, being, in fact, 
inspired by the directions of M. Doat of Sevres, the colors 
varying from blue and copper green, to yellow brown and 
pearly yellow.

HENRIETTA ORD JONES 
Henrietta Ord Jones, of the St. Louis Art School, showed 
four pieces of pottery in mat glazes, in the Art Palace; for these 
she received a bronze medal, but the most interesting part of 
her wfork was the exhibit of overglaze by her pupils in the 
Educational Building. These pieces were decorated in a great 
part from Keramic Studio designs, but the manner of appli- 
cation and the careful execution showed a guiding hand of 
unusual skill.

OVERGLAZE PAINTING 
In overglaze decoration at the Art Palace, New York 
was represented by Mrs. Anna B. Leonard, who received a 
silver medal for the work shown at the last exhibit of the New 
York Society. It is to be regretted that no other prominent 
New York decorators submitted work to the jury, for there 
are manv to do us honor.
