From the first moment I sat in a Gary Weeks rocking chair, I knew I wanted one. I'd never sat in a solid wooden rocker that felt so comfortable, rocked so smoothly and gave me such a sense of being held so safety!  It was even more astonishing that people of different heights and body builds said the same thing: "this chair FITS me"!  I ran into members of the Weeks family business at various regional shows through the years, so I kept being reminded of how much I wanted one. I'm embarrassed to say how many years I waited to follow through on this promise to myself, but this year for Christmas I finally bought one! I am so very happy to have this beautiful, comfortable, and superbly-crafted hand-made furniture gracing my home at last.

As an added bonus, I live close enough to Wimberley that I was able to pick up my new chair in person. I am so glad I did!  I got to meet Gary and one of his sons, and tour the woodworking shop.  As a fellow woodworker, I am in awe of the shop - from the custom jigs, the workflow layout, the dust collection slides and gates - just all of it. But the best part was listening to Gary tell about the evolution of the tools and the process. It was a real treat for me that just adds to my appreciation of the actual chair. I know not every buyer is able to have this kind of bonus experience, but if you are in the area, call ahead and ask if a tour is possible.  Even if you're not a woodworker, if you like seeing how things are made, a shop tour is well worth the time and effort. 

Now, if only we could get airlines to use Gary's comfortable seat design….

Two beautiful rockers arrived on our porch in perfect condition this afternoon.  We are blown away!  The craftsmanship and wood are fantastic, and the engravings came out great.  It will be hard to part with them on Christmas day.
Thanks again for all the great work to you and all your colleagues at Weeks and Co.

I couldn’t be happier with my 2 purchases. Exceptional quality build and execution. Also the shipping packaging was very well done.
AND… it’s extremely comfortable to rock in.

Thanks Austin.  It’s always been a pleasure to do business with you, and not only because of the quality of the furniture, but because of your business ethics and style.  It really is exceptional.

Austin,

I have not a shred of doubt that your furniture will stay with us for life and will serve us just as the rocker has for the past 13 years (by the way, it looks better with time). And the way we got here, you and us, was a rewarding experience. It is not just a table and four chairs one can buy somewhere off the shelf; it’s a member of the household now.

On a lighter note, thanks for the circles around the screws on the crating. They made the unpacking much easier. And it is a pity that you could not see those who passed by when I was undoing the crating: obviously, I had to do it in the street as there was no way of carrying the wooden box up a flight of stairs that separates the street from our door. Nobody asked the question but I could unmistakably read it in their faces: what on earth can possibly be inside?

Sure, do use any of my quotations although your furniture needs no advertising.

Austin, it was a real pleasure. Please do extend my regards to your father and our thanks to everyone who worked on those items.

Best wishes

Austin,

I am sitting at the table and on one of the chairs that were delivered this morning. When I saw the crating, I understood why you were somewhat dismissive of insurance. Great job.

I can hardly thank you enough for superb craftsmanship and excellent logistics. I know it was challenging. Who would ever thought that a Gary Weeks and Company trademark would be found right under a renaissance castle somewhere in the middle of Europe?

Thank you, Austin. It was a real pleasure to get back in touch.

Best wishes,

Hello Gary,                                                       

A. and J. are delighted with the walnut Weeks Rocker and Harris footstool. They…describe these pieces as their best furniture. (High praise from a daughter familiar with traditional Virginia Henkel Harris and Maryland Statton furniture!) Austin, Autumn and your staff were wonderful to work with. Thank you for your hospitality…

Thank you for being there for us; what a great reflection on Texas!  

Best regards,

Hi Gary

The rocker arrived in great shape, it’s absolutely perfect. The craftsmanship is outstanding. I’m so glad that I selected the American Walnut but I’m sure in any wood it would have been beautiful. Thanks for a wonderful experience.

Regards

Dear Gary,
…It was so wonderful seeing your shop…
Every piece you lovingly create has touched the earth in a profound way. The wood has been caressed by the wind, washed with the rain, traveled on by insects, supported nests, sung to by birds and crickets and smiled on by God. It traveled a lifetime to be enjoyed by you to become a part of countless memories in people’s homes. Parents rocking their newborns, seniors reminiscing their life while rocking and families gathered together at mealtime sharing life.
WOW! I truly love what you do!God bless you, your family and your business.
