Excellence beyond anything I've ever experienced, like a symphony in an earthier medium, the piece they made for me functions like a living dream. Look here for the definition of craftsmanship, great customer service into the deal too and very humble. I love these guys

Today we met Gary Weeks, a genuine, down-to-earth fella who's made his passion/obsession (his words!) his profession. My parents purchased a rocking chair from him six years ago and had it shipped out to California where they currently reside, but since we were visiting the area, we went to go see his showroom/workshop by appointment via email. Gary greeted us upon arrival and invited us in to check out (and sit in) his offerings, then moved on to a tour of his workshop.
So fun and informative, and truly awesome to see the unique work and care that goes into creating an excellent quality piece of craftsmanship. He showed his jigs, saws, sanders, and explained how their process works. Clearly he loves what he does and takes pride in his work. And for a good reason, my dad LOVES his chair and uses it nightly while watching TV or eating a snack.

I own 3 of these magnificent works of art: 2 in walnut and 1 in pecan. They are a joy to sit in and a joy to behold. This is furniture of the highest level of craftsmanship and design of the highest order. I hope to pass from this earthly life sitting in one of these beauties, likely the pecan rocker in my library. But who knows when the time will come?

Gary Weeks is amazing! Most beautiful furniture I had ever seen! Gary made us the most beautiful dining room table and chairs and we also have a Texas rocker. The next time we are in Tezas I must go check out his new work. Myra B
