"I want to share with you how pleased we all are with the table and chairs. After we here in the home finished admiring their beauty, guest began to arrive on Wednesday before we turned the lights on. All the beauty of the wood could be seen from the natural light. My guest were so busy admiring the table and chairs, they neglected to look down and admire my new Turkish rug. Later that evening when we began to set the table for 16 people our guess realized how big the table really is. We finished dinner, removed the table cloth and everyone continued to admire not only the table but the craftsman ship of the chairs as well. I had to tell the story over and over to each one who came up to examine it closely of my adventure in searching the net and placing the order. The delivery person told me how one family did not make the entire table, but several family participate in it's making. Everyone was really impressed to learn of the way the manufactures shared which added to the special quality of the table and the rich history behind the making. We set the table formally for three dinners over the weekend. Guest enjoyed taking pictures of the 16 of us all seated at one table. I even bought boosters for my young grandchildren to be able to sit at the table and enjoy. I had not known for sure that the chairs would arrive with the table. You should have seen my grin when table, chairs and chest arrive the week before thanksgiving. Thank you for you efforts and professionalism. Ruth R. Martin "
