Hi Gary,

Here it is. A happy mother rocking already with the baby. We are totally happy with the chair. The only bad news was that French customs were much more expensive then expected (533 euros, which is about twice the amount you mentioned initially; this is something you have to know for future transactions!).

[ Ouch! I get an estimate for duties and taxes from my agent and forward that amount to people in another country who are considering a purchase. The customs and duty charges on previous shipments to France have been accurate. Apparently, however, it is impossible for me to get a firm and correct quote for duties and taxes to every country, every time. This experience makes me reluctant to estimate duties and taxes on an international shipment.

Thanks for the efficiency in processing it all so as to make it available on time. And congratulations for the design: being born in Canada at a time when rocking chairs were very popular, I can tell you this one is really, really, well done.

All the best

Hi Gary:

The rocker arrived in perfect condition mid-November. We've been enjoying it very much. B. gave birth to our first child last week and they love spending time rocking together. There is one slight problem: when B. nurses Z. in the chair, she can't rock or he'll fall right to sleep! All of our visitors comment on how beautiful and comfortable the rocker is — and believe me, we've had plenty of visitors. The chair fits everyone: from a petite 5' 2" to a heavy 6' 3".

Thanks for your attention to detail on this new addition to our home (the chair, that is).

S. ordered the rocking chair for the arrival of our baby. We absolutely love it. I was reluctant to believe that it would be comfortable without a cushion, however, it is unbelievably comfortable. We love rocking our baby in it. Now if we could just get him to sleep for us!

Thanks for the beautifully designed and perfectly comfortable chair!

Gary,

Wow!

That one word is enough. The rocker is beautiful! Expertly crafted. The detail astounding. The walnut exquisite (especially the irridescence in certain areas). My wife loves it! And the comfort . . . we think it's the most comfortable chair we have ever sat in (and with nary a cushion).

Thank you for helping me make my wife's Christmas a very special one.

All the Best,

hi gary

i gave my husband one of your chairs for Christmas (see attached photo) but he quickly identified it as an imposter and wants the real thing. so, we would like to order a cherry rocking chair. when i called last week it sounded like the ship date would most likely be in february. sounds fine.

Gary,

the chair arrived on time yesterday, and it is lovely. When I sat in it I didn't want to get out. You can add me to your list of delighted customers.

Thanks for checking up on the delivery. Service as well as the product are excellent.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Gary,

The rocker is beautiful. My granddaughter was rocked to sleep within 20 minutes after the chair arrived. It really works. The engraving is perfect, N. was really surprised. Thanks for the great addition to our home.

Best of Luck,
