Reclaimed Teak Sourcing
Our ‘reclaimed teak’ furniture is sourced from the purchase or barter of ‘Rumah Joglo’ which are traditional Indonesian houses or other ancient teak timbers. These ancient and neglected houses have been standing between 50 to 200 years. The main frame construction and outer panels are made from teak and this lumber is carefully recovered for the fabrication of our unique furniture . Also, from time to time we are privileged to recover and restore a number of ancient carved panels and ‘Gebyok’ , large partly carved doors, from these houses. Our range of newly built gebyok or ancient gebyok are ready to be put in your living area. |
