Silas Kopf Woodworking is a custom furniture shop specializing in Marquetry decoration. Marquetry is the traditional craft of piecing together different species of wood, and occasionally other materials, to form pictures or graphic designs. We build objects to the highest standards using time-tested techniques and quality materials.

The work displayed on this website shows examples of the furniture we make. It is proudly presented for you to see.

Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
"Demystifying marquetry and bringing it into the 21st century is welcome and timely. It's wonderful that the person who is 'best at it' is open to sharing his uncommon vision."

Wendell Castle, furniture artist
