Teak is the common name for Tectona Grandis of
the family Vervenaceae, a native of Myanmar (Burma) and Thailand. Indonesian
teakwood is plantation-grown and was first introduced by the Dutch in 1816 to
this country. |
Teak has the greatest capability of any wood to
resist the rigors of the outdoor environment, making it a durable and beautiful
choice for the garden, patio or poolside. It is a dense wood with natural oils
and rubber content which confer a natural ability to withstand the effects of
sun, rain, snow or frost without rotting, cracking or warping.
Left outdoors in
its natural state, teak furniture will age naturally, acquiring an exquisite
silver grey hew in a year or so, requiring virtually no maintenance. Teak can
also be dressed with oil to preserve its dark glow although this is not
necessary.
