The first 60 pp. contain images of the company's specialty; fine reproductions of 18th century American furniture and the rest of the catalog are of their modern furniture."Over the course of nearly seven decades Charak Furniture Company produced exemplary reproductions of 18th-century-era furniture including works created in the American colonial and Georgian styles as well as sophisticated mid-century modern pieces made by the likes of German furniture designer and painter Tommi Parzinger. Charak was established in Boston Massachusetts in 1919. It earned a reputation for exceptional design and durability and the 1920s were a period of high production for the brand. Charak was a leading manufacturer of reproductions of early American furniture that was influenced by Queen Anne– and Georgian–era design including secretaries dressers and cabinets with exquisite details like accented moldings carved finials recessed door panels claw feet and other embellishments. While the Great Depression put many furniture manufacturers out of business Charak Furniture Company weathered the era’s difficulties. In fact during the 1930s it introduced one of its most enduringly popular dining tables: the drop leaf Danbury table. The solid mahogany table which features four leaves to comfortably accommodate larger dining parties as necessary is supported by four slender and elegantly curving legs a wonderful example of the company's furniture from this era."
