Jonathan Charles

Jonathan Charles is known for furniture where traditional cabinetmaking and careful selection of materials take centre stage. Marquetry, hand-finished details and veneers laid with respect for the grain of the wood give every piece a distinct handcrafted expression. The result is furniture that stands up to close inspection and works equally well as a standalone focal point or as part of a larger scheme.

The range includes desks, chests of drawers, mirrors, side tables and other pieces where the structure and finish of the wood are given room to shine. The combination of classical forms and varied finishes means the same model can take on entirely different expressions depending on the timber and the detailing. This gives furniture that suits traditional settings, but also works as a counterpoint in more contemporary homes.

At Brittfurn you will find Jonathan Charles furniture for studies, living rooms, hallways and bedrooms. A desk can become the natural centrepiece of a room, while a chest of drawers or a side table adds both storage and character. The mirrors can be used to bring light and depth to smaller rooms, and the smaller pieces work well where you want to add a classical touch without refurnishing the whole room. Wood, brass and fine detailing make the furniture easy to combine with natural materials and muted colour palettes.

In our showroom in Östermalm, Stockholm, you can see the marquetry up close, compare different finishes and get help choosing a piece that suits both the room and the rest of the interior. There you can also receive personal advice on scale, placement and how several pieces can be combined into a cohesive whole.
