Gary,

Your email said it very well! We love the chair and appreciate how well it is made. We also thank you for meeting our order several weeks earlier than expected.

Gary,

We are absolutely in love with our new chairs! We like to spend a lot of time at our dining table, and this really makes it special (and comfortable!).

The rocker has been delivered, and was more than I could have hoped for. It is extremely comfortable as well as beautiful (thus justifying the purchase to my husband). We have both been rocking everyday, with many more to come once the baby is born.

Thank you so much for making the process of ordering so easy and keeping me informed along the way. I will definitely recommend your company to people in the Philadelphia area.

Thank you,

Hi Gary,

We picked up the rocker last week and it is gorgeous. Sorry we haven't got back to you but we've been in and out of town for a couple of weeks. You definitely know how to ship it and we appreciate your attention to detail in the packing. It was perfect when we got it.

Thanks again,

Gary,

The table and chairs arrived Tuesday, and I just got the time to unwrap them last night. They are beautiful, as expected, and the table is indeed a nice size and looks good with just the two chairs. My small dinette set for two is perfectly proportioned; we did an excellent job of deciding upon the right size for the table top.

The color of the wood is not quite what I expected. It is a very neutral brown without any discernable red, green, or purple tinge, and it is a little lighter than anticipated. It is quite simply "brown" and, being not too dark and not too light, I am confident that it will go well in any setting I may find for it. (I plan to move a lot in the next few years.)

The grain on the table top is beautiful, and as you say, it is difficult to see the seams where the boards are glued together. I even went as far as to tape a piece of twine from edge to edge, along the seams to expose them. Still, there are areas where the grain of one board flows so well into the grain of the next, that it is quite impossible to follow any seam the entire length of the table!

The chairs are comfortable, just like my others, and I don't think I will miss the arms at all. The figure of the grain on the seat tops is stunning. Too bad most people won't see it, with the chairs shoved up to the table.

Thanks again for your work and dedication. You truly produce works of art. I am eagerly anticipating the introduction of the extra-large rocker. (Get to work!!) Hopefully by the time I retire. :-)

Gary,

I'm glad to hear you are keeping busy with the chairs. I love having such a beautiful piece of furniture, fit for a museum, in my living room that I get to use every day.

Dear Gary:

The rocker did arrive yesterday in perfect condition! We have been fighting over who will sit in it ever since!

I have not formally introduced myself, I am a 5th generation native Texan and lived in Austin until 10 years ago. I miss the hill country something fierce at times. Getting your rocker was a little piece of heaven. It is absolutely stunning. A. was so excited when it arrived! Your commitment and integrity to producing something so lovely is rare.

P.S. We have 8 month old twins — and a 3 and a half year old son. It's quite a sight to see me hold all of them at once in that rocker. I only wished we'd found you and the rocker sooner!

Blessings,
J. and A.

The chair arrived on Monday without incident. It looks beautiful in the nursery — now just a couple weeks and the baby will be here. Thank you very much. You do beautiful work!

Dear Gary,

I received the rocker yesterday in perfect condition. Your record is unscathed. I unpacked it and placed it in the living room. My wife described it as a perfect work of art. I think its the most comfortable chair in the house. My 3 month old twin boys agree.

Yours truly,
E.R.
