Iconic Furniture Designer and Maker Thomas Moser Dies at Age 90

The WCMA Board of Directors, its Members, and Tech Partners extend their deepest condolences to the Moser family. Thomas Moser's extensive contributions to the wood industry have been far-reaching and will continue to be appreciated for generations to come.

​Auburn, Maine — Thomas F. Moser, woodworker, author, and entrepreneur, died at his home on the coast of Maine on March 5, 2025.  Tom and his wife Mary founded Thos. Moser Cabinetmakers in 1972 with a mission of making quality furniture that would, in his own words, “endure, add beauty, grace, and value to the lives of those who use it.”  The business grew through his skill and deep commitment to customers and employees.  Today, the company employs over 60 craftspeople and has built chairs for American presidents and cherished furniture family heirlooms for thousands of dedicated customers across the globe.

Tom Moser insisted on acknowledging the contributions of everyone who helped build the company, saying, “My debt is to the craftsmen and women who make our furniture. They are Thos. Moser – not me, them.”
​
“That my father truly believed and lived those words set us up for continued success,” says Aaron Moser. “We will continue to build on his design sensibility, artistry, faith in our craftspeople, and gratitude for customers who appreciate handmade, sustainably built furniture for everyday living.”
