JP Ehalt is a well renowned and reputable manufacturer in France. The Ehalt fine furniture company was founded in 1924 in Strasbourg by Charles Ehalt a fine carver specializing in traditional designs of Alsace and Lorraine. In 1948 his son Jean-Pierre Ehalt stepped in to manage the business and developed designs for manufacture of furniture in the style of Louis XVI as well as Queen Anne and Georgian styles, while retaining the reputation of excellent craftsmanship.

Truly one of the most beautiful tables I have ever come across.
