Jonathan Charles Walnut Round Centre Table with Drawers & Ball Claw Feet

The Jonathan Charles Walnut Round Centre Table with Drawers & Ball Claw Feet is a 48 inch Circular Centre Table veneered in walnut with a geometric marquetry top featuring hand-painted botanical details within the inlaid borders. The apron contains functional drawers, making this a practical Occasional Table as well as a decorative centrepiece. The base comprises a reeded pedestal column supporting three curved scrolling legs, each terminating in a hand-carved ball and claw foot — a classical detail drawn directly from eighteenth century English furniture design. The combination of walnut veneer, satinwood marquetry inlay, and hand-painted floral detail gives this Round Centre Table genuine visual presence, whether positioned in a dining room, entrance hall, library or living room. This Walnut Round Centre Table works as both a decorative object and a functional piece with drawer storage for occasional use items. The carved ball and claw feet and scrolling leg base ensure this Solid Wood Occasional Table sits with the kind of grounded authority that only properly crafted, substantial furniture can deliver.

Jonathan Charles Fine Furniture

Jonathan Charles Fine Furniture is the vision of Jonathan Sowter, an English furniture designer who excels at the art of fine antique reproduction. They design and manufacture the highest-quality European antique replicas as well as their own unique transitional designs, which are distributed to the best shops and interior designers throughout North America, U.K., Spain, Italy, Russia and France, just to name a few.

What makes them different is their meticulous attention-to-detail and pursuit of high-quality construction. This has propelled their company growth from just ten employees in April 2004 to over 1,400 in December 2011. Their passion for detail is also reflected in their in-house brass foundry, in which their manufacture their own hardware so that when they design a new piece of furniture they can also design one-of-a-kind pulls, hinges, locks and even keys for that piece. 

It is their aim to constantly expand into new markets, while continuing to be a brand synonymous with the finer things in life.

They are craftsmen

Jonathan Charles works with artisans who display a large range of skills. They take pride in their work, which is evident in their beautifully-crafted antique replicas. They go far beyond just creating furniture that resembles English classics. They employ age-old techniques, which breathe soul and lasting-quality into their products.

They are designers

Many of their inspirations come from original antiques that Jonathan discovers in his travels. Sometimes, they will reproduce them as accurately as possible, while at other times they will take a detail that they like and design a completely new piece of furniture around that feature.

Oftentimes, they will start the design process from scratch. They gather inspiration from a variety of sources – be it a classic wallpaper design, nature, classic antiques, a rare object, or jewelry.

They never design to the limitations of their factory, and have actually expanded their factory as they have developed new skills in advanced marquetry, bronze casting, hand carving and much more.

They stand for quality

They never compromise on design and would be foolish to compromise on quality. Only the finest materials are used in their furniture. They also employ inspectors that ensure technically-sound components and design throughout the process. These experts oversee production, checking in at key transaction points so that nothing is overlooked. Before an item is packaged, it is reviewed with a keen eye and must pass a comprehensive checklist by their quality control inspector.
