Teak is a natural, living material. When used outdoors, it will naturally weather to a soft silver-gray patina over time. Variations in color, slight surface cracks, or oil marks may appear as part of the wood’s natural aging process. These changes do not compromise the strength or durability of the furniture — they are part of teak’s organic character and timeless appeal.
Because reclaimed teak carries marks of its prior life, each piece is truly unique, with individual grain patterns, nail holes, and tonal shifts. Customers should expect and embrace these variations as hallmarks of authentic, sustainable wood furniture. Cleaning: Wash periodically with mild soap and water using a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt and debris. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely.
Protective Finish: Your piece has a water-based protective coating that helps slow weathering, but teak will naturally evolve outdoors.
Optional Maintenance: To preserve the original golden tone, apply a teak sealer once or twice a year. Otherwise, allow it to weather naturally.
Seasonal Care: Cover or store during prolonged wet or freezing conditions to extend the life of your furniture. Always ensure cushions or textiles are dry before covering.
Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use pressure washers, bleach, or abrasive chemicals, as these can damage the surface.
