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.

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!

Gary,
Just got the chair and it’s in perfect condition. I’m sitting in it right now and it is just as good as advertised. Please take the time to thank your crew for me and let them know I really appreciate the attention to detail they put into this chair. Attached are a few pictures of where she’ll be living and the view she’ll have for the next few years.

Sincerely,
D. B.

Gary,

Just wanted to let you know that K. received her Rocker yesterday. The piece was safely delivered and opened without incident (K. said the trucking company complemented the quality of the packing crate).

K. is absolutely thrilled with the finished product. She sent a number of pictures, and I have to say the workmanship on the piece is just fantastic. I just know that this gift will be well used and appreciated for many, many years.

Thank you and your team so much for putting together such a special piece of furniture. I have already hinted to my team that when I eventually retire, they will not go wrong if I happened to get a similar gift!

Best regards,

S.

Gary,

…Sometimes I am across the room from it and I just have to walk over, sit down, and rock for awhile. It feels good for my soul. I moved an old lamp away from it as it seemed to distract from the chair’s beauty. I love my new rocker. Many thanks to you and your team.

Take care,

K.
