Ten years, two hands, and a love of the material.

Thomas Striegel grew up in Las Vegas and has spent more than ten years working wood with his hands. It started the way most real things do — as something he did because he loved it. Over time that love grew into Silver State Woodworking: a one-maker business rooted in quality, natural materials, and a genuine attention to detail that a factory line can't reproduce.

Every piece is handmade to order. That means it's built for the way you'll actually use it — the size, the wood, the finish — rather than pulled off a shelf and hoped to fit. It also means the wood gets to be itself. Grain, knots, and color variation aren't flaws to sand away; they're the reason the piece is worth keeping.

No two pieces are exactly alike, and the whole business is built around that fact, not in spite of it. When you commission a piece from Silver State Woodworking, you are getting one thing made once — with a maker's name behind it.
