The footstool arrived this afternoon! T. was stunned, and so very happy to have it! He put it into immediate use as he was already sitting in the rocker. So comfortable!! It also looks absolutely wonderful with the rocker. We are both thrilled! So very grateful that you were able to fill my order in such a timely manner and managed to have the new footstool delivered in time for his birthday.

With appreciation,

Hi Gary,
I'm so grateful for the hard work you and the team put into this chair- I can really feel it! I'm very happy to have a chair like the one my parents have back in Texas, it's like carrying a little piece of Texas with me here on the East Coast, which is wonderful. Wishing you and yours the best!

Hi Gary,

I wanted to email you to let you know how much I love the chair- it is so beautiful, it really took my breath away! The colors and grain of the mesquite are phenomenal. It's so comfortable to sit in, and I'm going to have such a great time reading in it. It almost glows in the light. I love my new chair!

Gratefully yours,

Gary,

...It is, of course, both beautiful and functional, and seems very much at home next to its older sibling, the Weeks rocker. In the morning, it hosts a big mug of strong coffee, and in the evening, a big glass of wine. Thanks to you and your team of artisans for making it.

I could not be more pleased.

Gary,
Sorry for the delay — wanted to follow up and let you know the table arrived and we love it.
At some point, when the rocker makes its way here, I’ll send photos of the two together.
Thanks again for an awesome piece of furniture and first-rate customer service. If I were my mother, I’d send you a hand-written note. But you’ll have to accept this email equivalent!

Howdy Gary,

Hoping all is well. Here’s my take on the rocker.

My solid cherry rocking chair arrived recently. Virtus Propter Se - Excellence or virtue for it’s own sake ! This is an art object of stunning beauty. Transcendental hand craft. Seemingly impossible? Except: there it is.

I’m a retired master carpenter living in a cabin in central Alaska. A custom rocker has been a long time desire. I’m a minimalist so I had to think carefully if this was the material possession to add to my small cabin. I’ve had a lifelong pursuit of high skill levels in a number of areas : virtuoso classical piano studies, degrees in classical piano and philosophy, 40 years of carpentry and woodworking, serious reading, long distance paddling, skiing, and backpacking, subsistence hunting and fishing, building a homestead, etc. I say all that to say - I’m a bit of a fanatic when it comes to skill and excellence! It takes a great deal to turn my head. My head has been turned. I’ve carefully scrutinized the rocker. It’s as close to perfection as any piece I’ve seen. Kind of spooky actually. The closest I’ve seen is a master wooden boat builder I knew when I lived in the Alaskan coastal village of Haines.

Gary,family and the entire group are extremely easy to work with. And lastly, although not cheap, the chair is very reasonably priced. Frankly, I don’t know how a product of this quality can be made for the price?

I’m already thinking I might need a straight chair at some point!
