Each piece, carved from a singular tree trunk, is handcrafted by artisans in Jonathan Charles’ factory, including the barley twist hardware that is custom cast in their in-house foundry. Coupled with gilded finishes and lacquered tabletops, these pieces are at once glamorous and bespoke, perfect for antique lovers with modern sensibilities.
