Texas Mesquite
The trees are short and crooked, most of the wood is full of defects. Pieces sound enough to make chair parts are rare. The color, depth, and figure are singular, beyond distinctive. Mesquite doesn't arrive as lumber, more as odds and ends. The piece Autumn and Will are unloading in the photo below is unusually large and clear on the face shown. The defects on the other side would break your heart.
Because of the wild grain and defects, it is time-consuming, mind-boggling, and skill-intensive to select and produce rocking chair parts to meet our specifications for figure and strength--verifying custom and handcrafted.
We are no longer stocking mesquite rockers as an item with a set price and a shipping date. We will be building some from time to time and pricing them according to their cost to us and to the distinction of their figure. In other words all mesquite rockers will be "Special Editions."
Every time we get a batch of mesquite here and dry it and make parts and chairs, we say, "Well, that's the last time." But it is just such Texas thing...

Words from Happy Rocker Patrons
Hi Gary and Team,
Yes! We are so happy that we chose the mesquite rocker. It’s just beautiful all around.
J. loves the rocker and has been napping in it! He’s an avid cyclist and often rests after a long ride.
…and reads a lot while sitting it as well. :))Have a great day and thanks again! 😊
All the Best,
