Old Solid Teak

Most of our wood is old solid teak, between 80 and 150 years old. It has already been through its drying process and settled into its shape.

Why old wood is better

Because it is fully dry and settled, it stays true and won't warp or crack the way young wood can. From dry inland heat to salty sea air, that matters.

Naturally strong

Teak is rich in natural oils. They help it resist damp and wear, which is why it was trusted for doors, chests and boats for generations.

The marks are the story

You will find nail holes, old joints, worn edges and a deep patina that only time can give. We restore each piece by hand, but we never sand away its history.

Caring for teak

Dust with a soft dry cloth. Wipe spills quickly. Once or twice a year, a little natural wax keeps the wood nourished. Avoid harsh cleaners.
