Kerry's Unequal-Sided Walnut Table Base For Rectangular Glass Top
This base can be used for rectangular or oval glass, marble, granite, composite or wood tops. It is a logical modification of my super popular X-shaped modern table bases (aka "Teepee" bases. This version is solid walnut 1 and 3/4 inches thick. A lovely and affordable modern base.

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.

For Wedge Table4.8John has been very easy & professional to work with. He accommodated my every wish to achieve table for between my two prized Stickley recliners. I just could not find anything remotely close that would meet my needs to what I had John make for me. I also did not want a mass produce table. Regrettably I have to rate the VALUE of this project at just 4 stars out of 5 only due to the exchange rate between our Canuck buck & the US dollar that made this a rather expensive but very appreciated piece of furniture for what it is but I could wait for our currencies to get on par again. I should have done this a year ago had I known of Custom Made. Thankx John

For Amrit's Dining Table5.0Incredibly happy with our new breakfast table. We asked Jonathan to build a custom bar height breakfast table for us and sent pictures and measurements, and we got exactly what we envisioned. He was patient about our indecisiveness when it came to selecting wood and other features, and informative to help us with our decision. The table is gorgeous and everyone who visits asks about it and drools over the workmanship. This is our first piece of custom furniture, and what an amazing piece. We'll be back to Jonathan's shop for his coffee table next.
