Dear Austin and Gary,

The crate arrived last Wednesday and B. was able to be home for that. Since the crate looked well intact they accepted the delivery but waited for us to arrive to open it.

We are all so thrilled with everything . . . the workmanship is awe-inspiring and the beauty of the wood is truly stunning. It is so comfortable and comforting to sit in the rocker . . . M. and I look forward to putting it to good use whenever we can visit . . . and I know S. and B. will truly enjoy it on a daily basis.

It is a family heirloom that will be appreciated and cherished. I'm not exactly sure how each piece is made (by one person, etc.) but a big THANK YOU to all involved. From the get-go Austin answered all of my questions and walked me through the ordering process . . . then Gary, as we know, did the same for us through the delivery process. (Austin, we hope you had a great vacation.)

We are grateful for all your kindness, help, and care.

Gary & Austin,

I just wanted to let you know the chair got to our house in fine shape this afternoon. It's just beautiful and such a pleasure to rock in, much less look at :-)

I know it will outlive us, but hopefully we'll have at least a few years to enjoy it.

Gary — we took delivery of the chair and stool on Friday – no problem, everything arrived in fine shape. The rocking chair is beautiful!! We are so pleased with it – its very comfortable, and the workmanship is wonderful. The chair was a gift for the mom-to-be in our family, and she loves it – I told her she could give it to her daughter when the daughter has her own baby.

It was a pleasure to deal with you, I hope we have another occasion to do that.

take care and thanks a lot

Hi Gary,

We are – as you say – rocking happily. I now have to race my toddler to get a seat, but when the baby and I get to use the rocking chair it weaves its magic and rocks us to sleep!

Thank you for your warm service and a gift I hope to hand down the generations.

All the best,
K.

Austin,

We received the walnut rocking chair and stool today and everything arrived in good shape. Both are beautiful works of art and the craftsmanship appears A+. Thanks for the effort and we look forward to years of pleasurable use.

Austin,

thanks so much . . . We received the chair right on schedule.
I was called back east for some emergency end-of-the-year project closeout, and ended up without phone or internet due to an ice storm, so my apologies on the delay in getting back to you to compliment you on this fabulous work of art. It will be a treasured part of my family for generations.

All the best, and thank you again . . . I'll send a picture of it in action when the little one arrives.

Sincerely,
A.

Dear Gary,

In October my husband and I went to M. M. in upstate NY for a long weekend. On every porch and in front of every fireplace in this huge resort hotel is a rocking chair. I became enamored by the rocking chairs and how relaxed I felt every time I sat in one. When we arrived home I told my husband I was going to find the perfect rocking chair so I could learn to relax at home.

Well he decided that somewhere on this planet there was a perfect rocking chair for his wife. He is a computer Geek so he knows his way around the computer and quickly found your website and began showing me your chairs. They actually took my breath away as he showed me the catalog of gorgeous chairs.

In November my walnut chair arrived. Oh my goodness, I have never seen a rocking chair like yours. I sat in it and I was transported to a calm and peaceful place. This rocking chair is everything I had hoped it would be.

When my husband ordered it for me he stated, "You will rock our first grandchild in this chair and you will have it long after I am gone and then you will pass it on to our son who will pass it on to one of his children." The quality of your rocking chair is outstanding which guarantees it will last from generation to generation in our family.

I feel blessed to have one of your rocking chairs to treasure and then pass on to my son who will pass it on . . .

Many Thanks,
the R's.

Austin –

The rocker arrived safely late this morning [ perfectly packaged! ]. It is even nicer than we imagined and we hope it will be a family heirloom for generations.

Best wishes for the New Year,

Gary,

I am enjoying the chair immensely. It is wonderfully made and is very comfortable (a feature very much appreciated by my back). And thanks for noticing my email address. Not many people understand the reference. There must be great satisfaction in creating beautiful furniture that will last for generations and never become obsolete (unlike anything with batteries, etc). Thanks again to you, Austin, Kitty, and all others who lent their artful hands to the crafting of the rocker.

Austin,

The rocking chair was delivered on Monday. Love it. Already been on lots of test drives. Garnering lots on compliments about the comfort and looks. Looking forward to years ( generations ) of use. Thanks for a quality product. It is obvious y'all care about your work. That kind of woodworking isn't an accident.
