Teak
Indoors, dust with a soft dry cloth. Outdoors, teak weathers to a silver-grey patina; clean twice a year with mild soap and re-oil if you prefer the honey tone.

Solid Teak Collection
Plantation teak (Tectona grandis) from Java — dense, oily and naturally resistant to water and insects. Indoor and outdoor.
Mahogany Collection
Fine, even grain that takes stains and paint beautifully — the classic wood for carved, colonial and painted furniture.
Old & Reclaimed Teak
Timber recovered from old Javanese houses and boats — character, patina and a second life for every board.
Mindi, Suar & Mango
Lighter, fast-growing tropical hardwoods with open grain — ideal for modern pieces and large slab tops.
Rattan, Loom & Woven Fibres
Hand-woven rattan, water hyacinth, loom and rope on solid wood frames — light, textured and tropical.
Care & Finishing
Looking after solid wood
Every piece leaves Jepara kiln-dried and finished with eco-friendly coatings (Bureau Veritas tested, US FDA 21 CFR 175.300). A little care keeps it beautiful for decades.
Mahogany
Keep away from long direct sunlight and heat sources. Wipe spills straight away and use coasters; polish with a non-silicone furniture wax.
Old & Reclaimed Teak
Cracks, nail holes and colour shifts are part of its history. Wipe with a damp cloth and dry; avoid strong cleaners that strip the patina.
Rattan & Woven
Vacuum with a soft brush and wipe with a lightly damp cloth. Keep woven pieces out of standing water and constant rain.
Wood & finish samples
See the wood before you order
For projects and trade orders we prepare wood and finish samples — teak, mahogany, reclaimed teak and our standard stains — so you can approve colour and grain in person.
