All You Need To Know About Reclaimed Teakwood For Furniture

Reclaimed teak is sourced from old buildings and structures, giving it a unique weathered appearance that adds character to any piece of furniture. While retaining the same strength and durability as new teak, reclaimed teak tells a story of its past life, making it a sustainable and eco-friendly choice. Its natural imperfections and history make it ideal for rustic or industrial-style furniture, while still being suitable for contemporary designs.
