Category: Rocking Chair - Beauty

Gary,

Well the rocker got here before your receiving instructions did. It's beautiful! And it is truly the most comfortable rocker I've ever sat in — except for my grandmother's lap, of course, when she was rocking me. Thank you so much.

I assume from your answer to my question about building rockers from wood supplied by me is that it isn't really worth it unless the wood I have is really unique or there are other non-monetary reasons, neither of which is the case here. So I'll just wait until I start developing grandchildren and order rockers then.

Thanks again for the chair.

Gary,

The chair is not only beautifully made, but also very comfortable. M. and I are very pleased with the chair. You and your team did a beautiful job. I am sure we will enjoy the chair for many years to come.

Thank you again, it was worth the wait.

Dear Mr. Weeks,

The chair was delivered as scheduled, and arrived in perfect condition. We are most pleased with the rocker in terms of comfort, beauty, design and workmanship. The joints are immaculate, a delight to the hand, and the grains as nearly symmetrical as human art could achieve. It is everything I hoped, and then some.

Many thanks,

J.A.

P.S. — My Weeks cherry rocker reminds me of a rosewood desk by Sam Maloof that I had a chance to buy for $800 about 40 years ago. I have often regretted my inability to afford that desk, which would now be a museum piece, but I expect the sting to fade in the enjoyment of your magnificent chair.

Hi Gary,

It is nice to hear from you! Thank you for the good wishes. We do feel blessed that we have a healthy daughter. These first few weeks have been full of discovery!

I'm glad you had a chance to look at the photos. I forgot that you had never "seen" me before. I think I saw a photo on your website of you and your family awhile back, which is always nice to connect a face to a person. The rocker is just gorgeous in the room, if I may say so myself! Everytime I see it I'm taken away with how beautiful it is, and just want to drop what I'm doing to go sit in it. M. seems to really enjoy it as well.

Best wishes to you and your family. Do keep in touch and take care.

Sincerely Yours,
C., C., and M. W.

Gary,

The chair arrived without problems. It is absolutely beautiful . . . as advertised. Everybody is taken with it. I would like to place my order for one made of mesquite, as we discussed. R. and I got to rock in it together for the first time today. She seemed to like it a lot . . . but she will not be able to tell you for a few years.

Thanks, Again for the great chair.

Gary —

I am thrilled with the chair! It arrived in perfect condition (not even a mark on the box) and was very easy to unpack. My husband (who is 5'9") and I (at 5'2") have both found the chair to be comfortable as well as beautiful. Thank you!
