Martin & MacArthur’s craftsmen have been the premier makers of koa furniture and beautiful home accessories for more than 50 years.
Founded by Jon Martin in 1961, the Company was at the forefront of reviving an appreciation for koa wood
– an exceptionally beautiful species of the acacia genus grown only in the Hawaiian Islands.
Irving Jenkins, author of a book on Hawaiian furniture and Hawai'i's cabinetmakers, calls “Martin & MacArthur the single biggest and lasting influence on the wood-crafting industry in the 20th century.”
“As the largest handcrafter of koa furnishings in the world, Martin & MacArthur has played an important role in keeping alive the traditions of classical Hawaiian furniture.”
Martin & MacArthur’s Hawaiian lifestyle collection offers home accents and accessories that complement their one of a kind handmade furniture. All have been chosen for their superior quality, craftsmanship and attention to detail. When in Hawaii, visit their showrooms on Oahu and Maui to experience first hand the very best Hawaii has to offer.
“Hawaii is one of the most beautiful places on earth, definitely one of the crown jewels of the United States. In homage, I am creating a series of paintings depicting Hawaii’s magnificent landscapes and waterfalls. I am inspired by Georgia O’Keefe’s landscape paintings she created while visiting Hawaii in the 1930s. Hopefully, you will feel her inspiration throughout my new series, depicting different timeless iconic sites hidden throughout the Hawaiian islands.”
