Gary, ... 

The chairs have such a silky and sensual texture and finish ... Everyone that sees and sits in them agrees.  We’ve sat in them now for at least 7 hours. So very comfortable as well as beautiful.

Your carpentry work is excellent and needs to have extended reach into the internet.  

My best regards,
E...

Thanks Austin.  It’s always been a pleasure to do business with you, and not only because of the quality of the furniture, but because of your business ethics and style.  It really is exceptional.

Gary,

What a nice message! …,  I will tell you that we LOVE the chairs!  They are both beautiful and comfortable.  Delivery couldn't have gone any smoother…

Best, A

Austin,

I am sitting at the table and on one of the chairs that were delivered this morning. When I saw the crating, I understood why you were somewhat dismissive of insurance. Great job.

I can hardly thank you enough for superb craftsmanship and excellent logistics. I know it was challenging. Who would ever thought that a Gary Weeks and Company trademark would be found right under a renaissance castle somewhere in the middle of Europe?

Thank you, Austin. It was a real pleasure to get back in touch.

Best wishes,
M.

Yes! It arrived on Saturday in perfect shape. Thanks so much- we’re a little afraid to touch it, but we’ll get used to it. Everything is absolutely gorgeous and comfortable. Just perfect…
Thanks so much,
J.

Hello Gary, Austin, and all of the furniture makers,

The chairs are fabulous. We could not be more pleased.
We also so much appreciate your expertise and the time you spend with us while we ... are making up our minds.

We (and M.) will see you at the next pick-up.

Many thanks,
B. and P.

Gary—

I received the rocking chair and barstools and all I can say is WOW! Just amazing workmanship--so much so that the table I had intended to use for the barstools just isn't cutting it! Would you be able to make a 48' Johnson Pedestal Table w/o Apron in walnut, counter height (36")? I'd be much obliged! Gratefully,L...

The chairs were delivered. They are beautiful looking chairs, are the most comfortable bar stools I have ever sat in. This is why I look for American made. Merry Christmas.

Austin, Just wanted to let you know the breakfast table and chairs were delivered yesterday and everything was perfect. The table and chairs are beautiful and we are very pleased with the quality and craftsmanship of this furniture; it’s every bit as good as the T.Moser dining room set we own. Please let your entire team know that they did an outstanding job. Thank you again.

Hi Austin,
The chairs are literally the favorite things in my house right now. They turned out so well. The finish on the wood is impeccable and they are so comfortable to sit on.

Thanks,N

Dear Gary,
…It was so wonderful seeing your shop…
Every piece you lovingly create has touched the earth in a profound way. The wood has been caressed by the wind, washed with the rain, traveled on by insects, supported nests, sung to by birds and crickets and smiled on by God. It traveled a lifetime to be enjoyed by you to become a part of countless memories in people’s homes. Parents rocking their newborns, seniors reminiscing their life while rocking and families gathered together at mealtime sharing life.
WOW! I truly love what you do!God bless you, your family and your business.
J.

Dear “All who make this possible”
We just received our second shipment of dining room chairs, the first shipment being about a year ago. They are wonderful, along with the maple rocker we purchased last year.
My thanks and appreciation are directed at all involved in making such consistently beautiful creations. I speak as a retired farmer who knows the challenges of running a business as well as a beginning woodworker who know the challenges making something that I a proud to have in my house that has no screws holding it together!
Here is a list of my thanks, please let all the ones who had a part in the process know of my love for the excellence of their work.
Design beauty, flowing lines strength functionality
Wood storage all the difficulty involved
Wood selection and cutting for best appearance
The Shop, machines buildings maintained, and safety dust control
Consistency in parts matching
Skills at band saw, courage at table saw
Joinery amazing shoulder and dowel work
Gluing never a crack
Finish sanding and coats of finish, spotless
Care in handling, a ding at the end ruins a lot of work, as I know!
Culture of excellence requires skilled management and dedicated employees
Family continuity a tribute to family dynamics
Packaging
Great office correspondence
I feel love in your work.
I know I have missed someone, I apologize for that.
How we do what we do really does matter.
Yours,
L. B.

Thanks Gary!The new barstools are fantastic — beautiful and perfect matches to our original Weeks stools.Having sat on a lot of stools over the years, I can truthfully say that these are my favorites — simple, comfortable, and great lines...

Hello Gary and Austin,
We had our first family Thanksgiving around our lovely dining table yesterday. It was perfect!
With gratitude,
B. and P.

To all of you at Gary Weeks & Co.:

We continue to enjoy the kitchen table and chairs as well as the rocker that you made for us nearly 10 years ago.

We wish you continued success!

H. and K. M.

Omg Gary, I’m sitting at my island with the top and stools from you and I’m ecstatic about them! I know you have many accolades for the woodwork and pieces but I will tell you that passing the torch to the next generation (like Austin and Autumn) is a notable accomplishment these days.

Thanks for the note, I appreciate it.
J.S.

By the way, I’ve started using one of our armchairs for my daily meditation—it’s perfect for the task.
S.S.

Gary,I’m still enjoying my lifetime table. Thanks for the exceptional work by you and your team.
L.

Hi Gary,
Thanks for reaching out. I’m pretty sure it would be pointless to tell you that I like the barstools very much, and that they have exceeded my expectations, yada yada yada. Of course, you know that already. I’ve been admiring them for years at my mother’s house to the extent that I had to have some for myself.
I am impressed nevertheless. If I had to guess, and merely by observation, I’d probably say that these fell out of a CNC machine before they were assembled. That must be your secret.
I hope we do get the chance to work on another project some day.
Regards,M.

I absolutely love my art you can sit on!

100% perfect.

M.B.

Hi Gary,

We are really enjoying the new dining room table and chairs. They will indeed be used on Thanksgiving day.

Thank you for leading a company that does such outstanding work.
B. T.

Table and chairs have arrived and they look great! Thank you so much!
S.

Austin,

We recently received the dining set. It is more beautiful than I even expected and I have high standards. As a hobby woodcrafter, I was impressed with your joinery and overall quality of your product. The furniture lines are simple and yet elegant. The chairs have good lumbar support. There are no brackets holding things together, instead, you rely on good craftsmanship and beautiful joinery.

Thank you,
E.

I do have to tell you a story about our dining room chairs. We have them in the dining room and are using them every day. A friend of ours came over to use our wifi since her house was seriously damaged during the big freeze in February... So, she came in and sat at the dining table on the chairs. After about 2-3 hours she told me that she was really worried when she came in and saw where we had set her up in the house. She thought she wouldn't be able to sit in the chairs for any length of time. However, she said she actually felt comfortable and sat there for another 2-3 hours. Your designs strike again!

Take care,
T.

Rocker, table and chairs are wonderful. Sometimes I just stop and grin at them, like a piece of art.

Run my hand over them, feel the thickness of that solid table top, the contours of the rocker arms. I appreciate things that are designed and made well. The pride shows through. That's what I like in my house.

Thanks.
J.

they are here and lovely… of course the kitchen isn't finished…but I can at least enjoy my bar stools.
J.

Gary! We absolutely love the table and chairs.

N. and M.

Dear Gary and Autumn,

Just wanted to let you know that our new stool arrived last night. It's a beautiful addition to our collection and just the right size to allow three of us to sit together in the kitchen.

Thank you!
G. and A.

Gary we can’t thank you enough for making our home beautiful and comfortable at the same time!!! E. just keeps walking around and saying WOW!!!! Take good care and we look forward to our island stools!!! D.

Hello Gary,

Everything looked terrific after getting them unpacked. We are enjoying the rocker! It has already become a popular seat at the puzzle table in the living room. The arm chairs are a big hit with my husband.

You and your family stay healthy!

Thank you again for designing and making these beautiful pieces.

J.

Gary,
We are extremely pleased with the table. It is so much more than we ever imagined. We can't wait for this Covid 19 to end so we can have people over, show them the table and tell them who built it for us.
P.

Hi Gary:

We’re delighted with your and your team’s work – the table is beautiful! I was at our house to receive it and carefully inspect it, and all went well.

Please pass our sincere appreciation on to everyone at GW, and our best wishes for continued health. Once we get a bit more settled, we’ll likely be back in touch with you about some side tables we’ve been eyeing on your website, which would probably need some size customization.

All the best,

M. & S.

Gary,

The table arrived in perfect condition, no scratches

The walnut is beautiful the grains in the drawers... just Beautiful. The workmanship just gorgeous. My family loves it. Thank you so very much!

L.

Hi Gary,

The table is so striking, so gorgeous, it’s made everyone behave at the dinner table. Really glad we could get this from y’all. Thanks so much.

J.

The chairs we have from you are a constant source of pleasure for us and our guests.

E. S.

Hi Gary,

The varnish you applied to the walnut dining room table is amazing and practically indestructible! After all these years and countless family gatherings, there are no stains!

T. B.

Hi Gary,
The writing desk, chairs and bar stools arrived this morning in good condition. You're right, the desk is particularly nice, but I think the arm chair might be my new favorite. All are beautiful and I thank you...for your fine craftsmanship and I am truly happy to have these new additions in my home.
A. R.

Hi Autumn,

The chairs were delivered yesterday - and my wife called me upon delivery and was totally delighted! I saw them last night, and we are both very pleased with our decision to work with you. The chairs are just spectacular, and we can't wait to show them off this holiday season (along with our amazing rocker!).

Thank you and everyone at Gary Weeks & Company for your craftsmanship and diligence. Every step of the process from ordering to delivery was handled perfectly, and your products - they are truly special pieces of art - and great furniture! You should all be proud of your work, and of the way your company does business.

Thank you and best regards,
G. N.

The table, chairs and bench are beautiful and perfect in the space. We are truly pleased and admire them daily. I think A. got tired of just looking and encouraged me one night- “Come on, Mom! Let’s break this new table in!” We’ve been using it since for eating, homework and all sorts of other things. Please thank everyone there for us.

Be the way, your delivery folks showed utmost care and courtesy.

Best wishes to all, J. S.

Gary,
Yes we did receive them and we absolutely love them. Thank you so much they are just perfect.
Warmly,D.

Gary,
Yes we received the furniture and have three words for you: We. Love. It.

It's beautiful and fits really well in our home. We hope to enjoy it for a long time.

BTW, I have a business trip upcoming to Austin, on 9/23 and 9/24, and if you're around would try to come by to see your office.

Thanks again,W.

Yes, they did. Everything is good. The walnut was the perfect choice. It was all we were hoping for.

P.B.

Gary,

The table and chairs came today. Beautiful!! We are very pleased and excited!!

R. W.

Gary,

This is so interesting. I was thinking that I should email you and say thanks to you and your team for getting us our beautiful chairs. They are beautiful and we love them. They take away a little of the sting of losing all the dining room furniture and will allow us to start a brand new set of memories once the house is livable. Things continue to progress, but it's still not complete. Now we're just hoping for June.

We just got back from our annual ski trip to Switzerland and got to visit the stool we had you make for our friends. They still use it every day and it has mellowed to a beautiful color. It made us smile and think of you guys.

Best wishes,

T.F.

We went to your studio this afternoon and were greeted by Will and Autumn. They were courteous, knowledgeable, professional and very helpful. We had questions about bar stools and also needed to have a 1998 vintage rocking chair repaired. Everything was addressed quickly and completely. We were impressed.

F.C. & V.W.

Gary, we are very pleased with the new chair and footstool...My artistic wife said, “tell him the chair is beautiful..., a work of sculpture in wood”. And we are using the footstool with a $3000 Eames lounge chair. As for the 6+ year old rocker, this summer we loaded it into the back of our Audi, drove into Michigan to the house of a young nephew who just had his first child, a very large baby boy named H. He and his wife needed a rocker and they just loved this chair. We later heard they were inviting family members over to see the rocker, let alone the new baby!

Thanks from the whole family.

J.S.

Good morning Gary,

Thank you for the kind words!

This may sound silly, but your furniture helps me relax (not something I am very proficient at!).

I dislike clutter and the beautiful lines of your pieces are just aesthetically perfect for me. The dining chairs are the most comfortable computer chairs I've ever owned (I can sit comfortably for hours in these chairs!).

I find the footstools for my rockers to be great seating -- and my cats love the curve of those and appropriate them when I rock. I never get to put my feet up -- those now belong to the purr-babies :)

I thought long and hard about investing in the small table and stools for my lanai -- but your furniture is worth every penny.

I really love having useful art :)

C.S.
