JMK ceramics were more commonly made for tableware rather than decorative ornament. The plant holders decoration adapts well to the vessel shape and she became increasingly popular as a ceramic artist.
 
Jessies nickname 'Rabbit' and her home 'Greengate'  in Kircudbright featured on her markings to ceramics, the blanks were made at David Methvens Kirkcaldy pottery.
