Reclaimed Teak Outdoor Furniture Material

About our Reclaimed Teak Outdoor Furniture

Reclaimed teak is a premium hardwood salvaged from old buildings, bridges, and other large structures—primarily in Central Java—then expertly repurposed into distinctive outdoor furniture. With a rich patina and timeless character, each piece tells its own story, making reclaimed teak a popular choice for those who value both sustainability and craftsmanship.

Our reclaimed teak is sourced from old-growth timber, originally harvested decades ago. This means the wood is naturally dense, durable, and full of the natural oils that make teak exceptionally resistant to moisture, insects, and weathering. These qualities make it ideal for year-round outdoor use, even in harsh climates.

How Reclaimed Teak is Prepared

The teak reclaiming process begins with careful selection of salvaged timber, which is then cleaned, de-nailed, and sorted. Depending on the condition of the wood, some pieces may be kiln-dried to ensure stability. Once prepared, the timber is planed and sanded to bring out its natural grain, while preserving signs of its previous life—such as hairline cracks, nail marks, or weathered textures—which add to its charm.

Our skilled craftspeople use this material to handcraft each piece with precision and care, ensuring that every item meets the same high standards as our Grade-A teak collections. The result is furniture that is not only beautiful but built to last.

Durable, Sustainable and Full of Character

Choosing reclaimed teak is an environmentally conscious decision. By reusing existing resources, we help reduce deforestation while preserving the qualities that make teak one of the world’s most respected timbers. The wood may develop a silvery-grey patina over time if left untreated, or it can be maintained with occasional cleaning and teak-specific care products.

Some pieces are finished with a subtle wash or hand-applied treatment to enhance the rustic, timeworn look—ideal for those seeking a relaxed yet refined aesthetic. Whether you're furnishing a terrace, patio, or garden, reclaimed teak offers a unique blend of durability, sustainability, and understated elegance.

For those who appreciate the beauty of wood with a story, reclaimed teak delivers exceptional outdoor performance with timeless appeal.
