Gary,

Yes, the chair arrived yesterday. Thanks for inquiring. My wife and I both love it. I am sitting in it right now and find it quite comfortable. The cherry wood is gorgeous and the finish is silky smooth. We really appreciate fine American craftsmanship.

Best regards,
J.

P.S. My son said, "I have never sat in a wooden chair that is this comfortable. It's a really nice chair!" I agree. A perfect chair for desk work and reading.

Yes, it came yesterday afternoon, and I've been enjoying it thoroughly ever since then! We took careful note of the packaging when it arrived, as it'll be going with us on all our various postings around the world and we want to make sure we treat it right (and make sure the movers do as well) — is there anything non-obvious we should know to be careful about when shipping it every few years?

We learned about you through a web search. I'm from Seattle, where opportunities to come across a beautiful piece of handmade furniture made out of gorgeous wood are, as it turns out, a whole lot more abundant than they are in the DC area. However, I'd always dreamed of getting one, plus I wasn't about to have an infant around with no chair to rock it in. As it happens, my husband and I both came across your information in separate bouts of searching — I think mine was something like "artisan hardwood rocking chair" or something like that. There are several beautiful options out there, but many of the others were either prohibitively expensive or we (who don't own a car) would have had to get ourselves to another state somehow to see/order/pick up a chair. Seems like we made the right choice!
Another friend who is expecting has already asked where we got it . . .

Thanks again,
M.

Hello Gary,

The rocking chair with foot stool and side table arrived yesterday in good order. Your craftsmen have created a beautiful furniture set that is a pleasure to view and touch and will be enjoyed for years to come.

Thank you,

Hi Gary,

Yes I received the chair last Thursday. It is beautiful. I'll let you know how it feels after rocking in it for a couple of weeks.

Thanks.

Gary, my rocking chair was delivered today, as previously arranged. Computer on lap, I've been working from home, from the rocker for several hours. What a beautiful and comfortable chair! Thank you so very much for a superb piece and for a delightful shopping experience. Yours —

Yes, I received the two chairs on Fri, so I was going to e-mail you this morning, but you are one step ahead of me. The chairs are awesome and in perfect condition. I enjoy working with wood myself, but you are an artist, and I am a novice. I am going to have a hard time letting people sit in them, they are that beautiful. I am also thankful that you will be making the table and chairs for me. I will be showing them off to my guests, and rest assured, they will know who made them. Thank you ever so much, you have mastered the art, and I am proud to display it.
