Paul Bunyan's Coffee Table

$2,900

Massive 300 lbs. Stained White Oak Dining Table. The tabletop is a full 1 and 1/2 inches of solid, hand selected white oak. The the legs are 3 and 1/2 inches thick at the top, splayed in two directions and tapered on 2 sides (don't try that at home:). The 3/4 inch thick aprons are full inserted into the cut facets of the upper legs and the buttressed with inch and a half thick oak from the back. The center boxed section of the frame is also buttressed on the 45 with inch and a half internal corners. The tabletop has indexing blocks mounted to the underside, so that the tabletop just sits on the frame by gravity and cannot move laterally one bit. This is one strong, solid table, but the top comes right off (but weighs 240 lbs) for "easy" moving:)!. The table is stained with Minwax Jacobean stain and finished with Danish oil and satin wax. You can't get this at Ikea!:)

Jonathan Walkey is retired professional furniture maker who now makes selected pieces for discriminating clients. I am a one man studio, specializing in decorative arts and crafts, mid-century, Greene & Green, etc. furniture. my own personal style generally includes contrasting hardwoods with beautiful grains and hand worked inlays. In between commissions I simultaneously work on personal studio furniture projects.

I was raised in Lincoln Massachusetts where my father was the director of the DeCordova Museum of modern art. My mother worked as an expert in fine crafts and furniture . I attended many arts and crafts classes and summer art camps at the Museum. I was trained as a silversmith at age 11 and at age 12 built a 10 foot kayak made of wood and canvas. I was a U.S. Navy trained aviation mechanic and earned my living for 15 years as a master mechanic, working mainly on motorcycles. I am also a former carpenter, criminal appellate attorney, credentialed teacher, professional writer, and painter.

Today I apply my talents and interests to building fine arts and craft furniture. My lifelong continuing education combines training of the mind with training of the hands. What you buy from Jonathan is fine art as well as heirloom quality furniture built to last many lifetimes. These qualities are reflected in the cost of my work, neither of which should ever be compared with that of commercial furniture.
