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 Ibi's Table Base For Glass Top Dining Table5.0Jonathan was absolutely wonderful to work with! He designed a custom table base for us after listening carefully to our needs. He also went on an expedition to find the perfect plank of walnut that would blend well with our existing furniture. He was so response and answered all of our questions along the way. I was blown away by the very personal attention gave us and with the quality of his work! I would have him make every future piece of furniture in our home if we could! Thank you Jonathan! We couldn’t be happier!

For Starry Night Coffee Table4.7Jonathan was wonderful to work with and very thorough in answering my questions, making the entire process painless. He was good with providing updates as the table was being made, and it was shipped on time and in perfect condition. I love the end result - the table is beautiful and exactly what I wanted. I would definitely recommend him for your next project!

For Purpleheart And Quilty Bird's Eye Maple Entry Hall Table.5.0I HIGHLY recommend Jonathan - he was excellent to work with in every way, and you definitely will not be disappointed with his craftsmanship. I asked Jonathan to reproduce an Ethan Allen cherry wood sofa table. I had purchased the coffee and end table, but the sofa table got discontinued before I was able to order it. All I had to do was email hm a picture of the end table and the dimensions I wanted. Jonathan was able to replicate the sofa table perfectly! If you looked at Jonathan's table and my other two, you would think they had all been purchased together. The workmanship is EXCELLENT, and the price was actually slightly less than what I would have had to pay at Ethan Allen. Thank you Jonathan!

For Custom mid century end tables4.7Jonathan was freaking awesome! I couldn't find matching end tables for a beautiful mid century modern coffee table that I purchased awhile back, so I started looking for wood workers who could make a couple of them for me. I came across Custommade while surfing the web after a month of looking without success. I discussed the project with several other gentlemen on the site without any luck as they all had unreasonable asking prices for the work. I mean i expected to pay more than $1k for 2 custom tables but $3k to $6k was ridiculous! Then I came across Jonathan who was not only enthusiastic about the project from the start but also asked a very reasonable $1400 for the pair. We was very knowledgeable and gave some great suggestions throughout the process. I admit I was pretty picky and very specific in what I was looking for but he took it in stride and created 2 beautiful pieces that will be in my family for a long time to come. The workmanship is exceptional. I chose to drive down to San Diego from Santa Cruz to pick them up myself and meet the man who had done the work. Jonathan was very nice and I am glad I chose him to do the job. Great work great guy! Do not hesitate to have him do whatever you need done, you will not be disappointed!

For Solid Red Oak Mission Style Desk5.0We asked Jonathan Walkey to create an oak dining table to accomodate bench seating based on his excellent reviews. We feel fortunate that he accepted our request. The magnificent piece is the center of our home with family and guests gathered round it enjoying the inclusive comfort of the corner it occupies. Jonathan's creation exceeded our expectations! His craftsmanship and integrity make him and his creations a one-of-a-kind experience. Thank, Jonathan!
