Charles Hollis Jones
The now omnipresent design use of acrylic and Lucite owes much of its enduring popularity to seasoned creative Charles Hollis Jones. Nicknamed “Mr. Lucite,” the California-based furniture designer and artist made his reputation — and contributed to a lasting legacy for a material one might not immediately consider highbrow — with chairs, tables and other furnishings in the substance scientifically known as polymethyl methacrylate. But while the connecting thread through Jones’s body of work is the presence of translucent materials, his designs are anything but one-note.
The son of an Indiana carpenter, Jones has always been fascinated with structure and reinventing expected ones in new ways. He began working with furniture manufacturers while still a teenager and came to prominence in the 1960s and ’70s, researching and experimenting with techniques to shape acrylic into unconventional forms. “If I design a T-A-B-L-E without thinking of the name, then I can pretend I’ve never seen one,” he told PIN-UP magazine. His design combinations run the gamut from Lucite, brass and glass on elegant dining tables to more unusual applications of Lucite as legs for upholstered sofas and frames for Tibetan fur chairs.
Jones’s work is as varied as his client list, which has included Frank Sinatra, Sylvester Stallone and the Kardashians. For Tennessee Williams, he created a writing chair called the Wisteria chair. Jones also collaborated several times with modernist architect John Lautner, designing furniture that seemed to disappear into its surroundings.
He resides in Los Angeles, where he still designs today.

- Charles Hollis Jones Rare "Connexion Line" Pair of Side & Coffee Tables SignedBy Charles Hollis JonesLocated in Cathedral City, CARare brass plated and lucite pair of side tables or can be used as coffee table 2019 Charles Hollis Jones (Second set ever made by CHJ) Provenance private collection of CHJ The Connexion double square end table is part of the Connexion line. About the Connexion Line The Connexion Line was created out of a relationship Charles originally had with a girl. When things didn’t work out he began drawing pictures of things he wanted to gift her, they never really in the end connected with her but ultimately became very connected with his work. The philosophy behind this line is to create things that go together and connect in life, especially in furniture so people wouldn’t have to buy multiple pieces with no relationship. The Connexion line is also sensitive to collectors who want to buy furniture — they could easily own a collection of work, as most of the line ranges between 2-6 pieces. Charles thinks of this line very much so as art, and saw an opportunity to improve on the relationships of many pieces of furniture in one room. Additionally, Charles’ focus was to showcase that one could own multipurpose furniture...Category
