Jewels of Java Around the Tree Bench

With an average lifespan of 75 years, teak is by far the best choice for outdoor wood furniture. Untreated, this luxuriant hardwood can endure season after season of everything Mother Nature can dish out. Winter storage is unnecessary as our fine teak furniture resists water, weather, and warping as it mellows to a soft silver color. The "new" look can be maintained by the application of teak oil once or twice a year, although this only affects the color, not the integrity of the wood, and most prefer the look of fine aged teak. The highest-grade teak comes from plantations in Indonesia and Jewels of Java is proud to work with Perum Perhutani, the state owned agency responsible for managing the conservation of the Indonesian teak forest where no tree is harvested unless another is planted to replace it. The wood is then kiln dried and constructed with mortise and tenon joinery creating furniture to last a lifetime.
