Due to our company’s history of surviving tough economic times, the U. S. Federal Government will not be giving us money. Those dollars are reserved for assuring that our nations nearly bankrupt Banks and Wall Street Brokerages can buy new corporate aircraft, VIP vacation homes, and VIP Alpine Skiing trips.

Don’t feel like laughing out loud,? That’s OK. Spend some time with us!

 Welcome to our Web Site & E-Store!

There’s just something special about OAK; with Artisan Design, the beauty is more than skin deep.

In late 1991 we knew Gazelle would be a winner. I built a needlework stand for my wife Laura and then another for a friend who sent me to two local storeowners who purchased 12 for customers. 1992 sales of $85,000 convinced us our future was in service to the needlework industry.

From the beginning, feedback from both store owners and consumers served to help us refine existing designs and put good ideas to use.

We’ve done our best to make this site user friendly.  Hopefully the information here will guide you in the right direction.

Israel adopted the Gazelle as it’s symbol when it was founded in 1948 because it represents the struggle to survive and the will to prosper in an unforgiving  world.

When we built the first needlework stand, Laura commented that the joint between the vertical post and leg looked like the leg of some kind of deer.  After researching names of such “Gazelle” just struck a chord with us. Thomsons Gazelles are very stout, very light, and very well adapted so as to be able to survive an average life span of 15 or more years despite the punishing nature and ever present threats.

Comfort matters when you want to stitch for minutes or hours; ask someone chronic with back pain.  Here’s Laura’s solution.
