Hi Aubrey,

We received the chair today and it is absolutely gorgeous and sure to be a family heirloom for generations to come. I have to admit that I was hesitant to order a chair over the Internet. But with all the great reviews and your guarantee I thought it was worth the risk. I am glad that I decided to take that risk. The chair is so comfortable and beautiful I am sure I would have a very hard time finding anything comparable locally. It also mean a lot to my wife and I that the piece is handmade. Just looking at the chair one can immediately knows the care and craftsmanship put into it. We feel very privileged to have such a work of art in our house.

Thank you very much,
R. & E.P.

Aubrey,

The rocking chair arrived in beautiful condition. The freight company was courteous, helpful, and arrived during the time frame they gave me. The crate was in great shape and was much lighter than I expected. The scent from the stain dissipated after about a week. I have enjoyed rocking in it and have even fallen asleep in it a couple times already.

Thanks again!

Gary,

I apologize that I have not yet had a chance to reach out, but needless to say, the chair is beautiful and it was pristine after unpacking. My one month old fell asleep in my arms in it yesterday.

Thanks again, and all the best.

Hi!

Just wanted to let you all know that we received our rocker in perfect condition and we love it! I rocked our daughter to sleep in it tonight — So sweet! My husband commented on the excellent craftsmanship; he thinks we’ll be passing it onto our daughter when she has a little one years from now! Keep up the great work, and thanks again!

Gary and Company,

A light snow has fallen overnight, dusting the trees and lake ice with powdery white. When the sun comes up, I'll do what has become one of my favorite things, take a quiet seat in your wonderful rocker and gaze out the window southeast through the woods and over the lake. The scene is surely serene, but the rocker adds immensely to that serenity. It envelopes and supports. It seems as timeless as the scene out the window. Oh, how I love to sit and look and rock.

My wife and I bought two of your rockers over a year ago. They were reciprocal gifts, emblems of a turning point in our lives, as our now grown children set out into the world and as we come to terms with our age and our quietude. Our fondest hope is to rock away together for another 35 years of marriage, and when that is done for our two children to take our rockers and continue on. The chairs are built for the generations to come. We use them now. I smile when I think of who may be using them in 100 years.

I am a big fan of artisan work and people who have a love and passion for getting up everyday and doing what they were born to do. The things they create tend to make a connection between those who made it and those who use it. They are also all the more beautiful for it as well. Hopefully we will get the opportunity to travel to Wimberley and stop by the shop when we visit Texas in April.

Sincerely,
G.S.

Gary,

Sorry I haven't written to you sooner. I saw the beautiful rocker last Friday and had a chance to sit in it. Comfortable indeed!

. . . I can't tell you what a work of art the chair is. It will indeed make a wonderful heirloom in years to come.

I will get back to you in the future about the placque to be engraved under the seat of the rocker.

Thanks,
D.W.

PS: The chair was in a container secure enough to be part of Fort Knox.
