Jane and Gordan Martz Tile Side Table

Creator: Gordon & Jane Martz
Offered by: Hobbs Modern

Description
This beautifully crafted Jane and Gordon Martz side table showcases the couple’s celebrated fusion of ceramic artistry and warm Mid-Century Modern woodworking. The tabletop features its original Martz tiles, arranged in a clean, geometric grid with alternating bands of subtle striations. The tiles themselves carry a soft greenish hue—a signature Martz palette that feels earthy, calming, and quietly sophisticated.

The ceramic top is framed by a gently rounded walnut edge, which brings warmth to the cool glaze and highlights the handcrafted nature of the materials. Below, the sculptural walnut base is classic Martz: simple, functional, and impeccably proportioned. The two vertical supports rise from a rounded rectangular plinth, giving the table a grounded yet airy presence.

Perfect as an end table, plant stand, or accent piece, this design reflects the Martzes’ philosophy that everyday objects should be both useful and artistically expressive. The combination of handmade tiles, organic wood grain, and refined form makes this table a timeless addition to any interior—Studio Craft at its most charming and collectible.
