New designs continue to push us along the path of exploration that
Tom Moser
, along with his wife Mary and their four young sons, embarked upon
more than 35 years ago
. As proof that the apple does not fall far from the tree, Tom's youngest son
David Moser
has become an accomplished and renowned designer in his own right and continues to take us along the path.

to read a recent review of the
Edo Platform Bed from
Arizona Foothills Magazine.
When it comes to design, the irony is that it’s difficult to be simple enough to be good. As designers it is our ambition to achieve designs to which, “nothing can be added and nothing can be taken away.” The Edo Platform Bed is minimalist to the core.
This design takes the hallmark cantilever of the Edo aesthetic, which began with tapering the chair seat to accentuate movement, and brings that “spirit” forward. The result is suspension in space. In defiance of gravity the Edo platform bed gives the effect of hovering over the floor.
Supremely functional, this bed has built in side tables and a headboard that is perfectly positioned for bedtime reading. If you prefer, the design can also flex to accommodate one or none of the side tables (simply
contact us
to discuss options).
The Edo Platform Bed is offered in Queen and King sizes, with other sizes available upon request (call for a quote).

The Meridian Collection is our first to be introduced with ash as the primary wood. While also offered in cherry, the clean, crisp aesthetic of ash creates an uplifting lightness that matches perfectly with this contemporary design.
This coffee table brings the Meridian aesthetic from the dining room and into the living or family room. Available in Ash or Cherry with standard table top diameter of 34", other sizes can be done on a custom basis upon request.

David Moser’s acute sense for aesthetic details are found in the fine radius of the Meridian Stool's underside, the inverse matched radius at the top of the leg, and the optical correction effect at the termination of the stool’s crest. The independent yet strong single back slat accentuates the sleek lines.
Available in Ash or Cherry with standard seat heights that accommodate counters and bars ranging in size from 36” up to 42”.
About Stool Heights
We offer three standard stool seat heights: 25" stools for counters about 36" high (standard kitchen counter height); 27" stools for 38" counters/bars; and 31" stools for a 42" bar height. If you require a custom height, please let us know.

David Moser’s acute sense for aesthetic details are found in the fine radius of the dining chair’s underside, the inverse matched radius at the top of the leg, and the optical correction effect at the termination of the chair’s crest. The independent yet strong single back slat is a first for David and accentuates the sleek lines.
Another first is the use of ash as the primary wood. While also offered in cherry, the clean, crisp aesthetic of ash creates an uplifting lightness that matches perfectly with this contemporary design and allows the grain and texture of the wood to come to the fore. The finish on Meridian in ash is a clear lacquer finish with a UV inhibitor to protect and seal the ash and minimize the impact of light and air on the color of the wood over time. This will be the first time we have used this exact finish, but we expect it will be a durable finish and easy to live with. The finish on Meridan in cherry is our standard oil and wax. Like all our furniture, Meridian is guaranteed for the life of the original owner, and there is much more finish info available in our maintenance and care guide which can be downloaded by

Great furniture designers, like the Shakers during the 19th-century and the Danish of the mid-20th century, often view design as an obligation to reflect a heightened social conscience. They strive to create objects of beauty for the betterment of everyday life. David Moser’s new Meridian Collection is firmly rooted in these ideals.

We are proud to announce that the Pasadena Rocker has won
Interior Design
magazine's 2009 BEST OF YEAR award in the residential seating category.
CLICK HERE
for details.
Approaching design with a sculptor’s eye, David Moser’s passion is stirred by contemporary sources of objective beauty. Such was the case with the Pasadena Rocker, the progeny of a long line of high craft design-builders such as Sam Maloof, Art Carpenter, Wharton Esherick and New Zealand furniture designer David Haig.
When David Moser began exploring the nuances of his own rocker form, he was particularly moved by Haig’s design accomplishment, exemplifying sublime form and sheer simplicity. And so in consummate Moser fashion we again challenged ourselves to coax movement and fluidity from solid wood. David’s intent was to build a quintessentially functional Moser piece in the “studio” genre; rollover edges and flowing joints. The result is a stand-alone sculptural piece, satisfying the visual senses while offering comfort and long service.
We take great pride in our skills, which continually mature. Now, after mastering the aesthetic of the
Pasadena Collection
, we are pleased to present the new Pasadena Rocker in both cherry and walnut.

The Pasadena Dining Chair was named "Best of Year" in 2008 for Product Design/Residential Dining Chair by
Interior Design
magazine...

.
A modern, geometric hourglass defines the telltale shape of the Pasadena Dining Chair, continuing the action set in motion by the
Dining Table
.
Only one flat plane exists on each chair, where the back and the seat joint are reinforced. Otherwise, they seem more carved than assembled. Their shapely legs are faceted and splayed to provide stability without bulk. The seats are wide and as comfortable as any solid wood dining chair could be without upholstery. The slender back of the Side Chair scrolls up from this strong foundation, using the least amount of material needed to comfortably support the sitter.
The Arm Chair has a central back splat to support its broader profile, and the Side Chair is available with or without a similar back.
As a whole, the Pasadena Dining Chairs enhance the space they inhabit, without overpowering it.

The Pasadena Dining Table encompasses the best of high-craft and new-tech skills: simple to look at and touch, yet extremely complex to build, requiring hours of hand carving to complete.
The broad grain-matched cherry tabletop rests lightly on four carved legs, as spare a silhouette as can be—light and curvaceous yet sturdy. Upon closer inspection, the laborious handwork can be observed in the contrasting cap joints that are circular (not square) and lie flush to the surface. A sculptural “poured” edge draws the eye and the hand down the sides of the table, then down the legs in a kind of ebb and flow reminiscent of the movement of the sea—the tide harnessed in wood.

A narrower, versatile version of the new
Pasadena Dining Table
, this curvaceous piece is suitable for use as a hall table, writing desk, vanity, or side table. Using the same meticulous handwork to create the Pasadena design’s hallmark “poured” edges and serpentine legs, the Side Table offers the same rich sensory experience on a smaller scale.

Two of New England’s most renowned companies have joined hands to marry the finest in clock making and woodworking to produce a stunning timepiece ensemble.
Chelsea Clock
enlisted Tom Moser to design and craft a distinctive base for its venerable 8-1/2" Ship’s Bell Clock. Made exclusively for Chelsea, the base is hand carved from solid cherry and hand rubbed to a pristine finish.
Elegant, modern and graceful lines accentuate the natural beauty of the wood, and serve as the perfect minimalist companion for the grand scale of an 8-1/2" Chelsea Clock. Each base is sold with a custom engraved solid brass plaque marking its authenticity, and shipped directly from Chelsea in their keepsake blue box (shipping charge will be based on delivery address).
About Chelsea Clock
Founded in 1897,
Chelsea Clock Company
is one of the oldest, and largest clock manufacturers in the United States. For over a century, Chelsea's craftsmen have been designing and meticulously building some of the world's most exquisite time machines. Today, the company continues to manufacture and repair clocks at its original corporate headquarters in Chelsea, Massachusetts.
Ship's Bell Story
Mariners have used a unique bell code to tell time at sea for hundreds of years. The code is based on the crew's typical workday routine while the vessel is under way. A ship at sea requires constant attention throughout the day's twenty-four hours. The day is therefore divided into six four-hour periods, each called a "watch." Similarly, the crew is segmented into three divisions. Division members then stand their individually assigned duties on two watches per day, with eight hours off duty between watches. To rotate each division's watch times, the Evening Watch is periodically divided into two watches. These are called Dog Watches because they "dog" the watch schedule for all divisions ahead by one watch period.
First Watch:
8:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m.
Mid-Watch
(also Black Watch)
:
12:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m.
Morning Watch:
4:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m.
Forenoon Watch:
8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Afternoon Watch:
12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Evening Watch
4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
The watch officer struck the ship's bell every half hour to apprise the crew of the time. A single bell denoted the end of the first half hour and one bell was added each half-hour. Eight bells therefore signaled the end of each four-hour watch. Like centuries of seafarers, you'll soon know the time when the clock chimes, even if you can't see it.

TO READ THE
NEW YORK TIMES
REVIEW OF KINESIS, PRINTED JAN. 1, 2009
David Moser talks about how his latest design came to fruition in this short 4 minute video (after watching the video, scroll down for more details)...
The signature arms of the Kinesis Chair are milled from three matched pieces of solid wood with the edges polished until they pour in a seemingly continuous curve that echoes throughout the entire frame and base of this remarkable piece. A compound, complex curve anchors the frame and the cupped seat, a shape repeated again in the Ottoman.
In a celebration of complementary materials, a star-shaped bronze base—cast at a local foundry—provides solid enduring support and grounds the momentum of the piece. Wrapped leather or suede cloth upholstery further accentuates the curvilinear design. Taken as a whole, the Kinesis Chair and Ottoman combine three basic materials that have enriched mankind’s evolution from the dawn of civilization: wood, leather, and bronze.
Chair and Ottoman are available in cherry or walnut.
