Checkmate

July 2016 – High Point, NC – High end furniture manufacturer Jonathan Charles demonstrates their signature marquetry skills through checkered patterns on select accent furniture. Commonly referred to as wood inlay, the process requires a steady and patient hand, by laying veneer strips in perpendicular formations to achieve the two-toned look. Each artisan spends up to 20 hours perfecting the inlay pattern and applying the finishing touches: sanding, sealer, and clear varnish. Metal adornments, from stainless steel banding to decorative brass pulls, that are custom forged at Jonathan Charles’ in-house foundry, accompany the checkered patterns on each piece.

The bottom two drawers and the rest of the design are veneered in a high sheen natural walnut. Brass handles and banding across the top complete the look. 32.75” W x 18” D x 29” H
