Jimmie Martin furniture

We have such an appreciation for designers who bring a bit of modernity and rawness to our world of design. You won't find a typical, cliche or boring furniture piece in Jimmie Martin's furniture collection that's for sure! Each piece is custom, unique, has a personality all its own and we love it! Combine history, art and pure creativity and you've got the perfect recipe for a furniture collection that is exciting, sexy, quirky, and urban while somehow managing to remain glamourous and sophisticated. Modern statement pieces at its best...here are a few...

We love that the feathers on this classic french Louis XVI chair give it a high fashion feel. And although the taxidermy bird is sort of grotesque and gothic, it kinda works and is actually quite funny!

Tagging isn't always unsightly! This Queen Anne chair received a modern facelift with a sharpie and silver leaf details.


It's not enough that the materials for this chair are a rare combo of metallic neon green paint and zebra hide...so Jimmie took it one step further and added the zebra tail. Hmmmm not quite sure what to think about this tail, but I think I'm leaning towards love it.


A simple black armoire with a gold painted candleabra. Classy yet fun.


Wanna really tell them all just how you feel? Get it out with a sharpie and some spray paint! And don't hold your words back...furniture is the new therapist don't you know.
