Teak Garden Furniture Our furniture is made from the finest selected teak and hand finished by craftsmen, whose skills and perfect understanding of this wood are demonstrated in the design and construction of the highest quality products. Each piece of teak is kiln dried to less than 12% moisture content before being shaped and used to produce each piece of furniture. This prevents any changes in climatic conditions between Indonesia and overseas countries affecting the furniture. Every item is manufactured using traditional dowelled mortise and tenon joinery complimented with solid brass fittings and fixings. Naturally rich in oleoresin, teak is highly resistant to warping and rotting and will last for many years without any special treatment. However, after time, teak can show hairline cracks, especially in end grains. These are quite natural and do not detract from the wood's strength or durability. Chairs and Tables have sourced its teak (tectona grandis) from the island of Java. The teak used comes from ecologically managed plantations in Indonesia, which are now owned and managed by the Indonesian government agency "Perum Perhutani", which is responsible for managing a strict policy regarding the size and quantity of trees felled each year together with annual replanting. Our furniture is sold untreated in its natural state. The untreated timber is a very pleasant yellowy-brown olive color when still fresh. The furniture is fine sanded so that it will have only the natural color of the wood coupled with the raw natural texture of the teak grain.
