GRADE-A TEAK WOOD
Grade-a teak wood is commonly referred to as the “Prince of all Woods” due to its high market value and exceptional aesthetic. A pure, dense in grain wood with little to no imperfections expressed in a beautifully toned honey golden color is extracted from the center of the teak trees that’s rich with a natural rubber and oil that distinguishes the a-grade teak from other inferior grades of teak wood. This feature aids in its durability and overall long life expectancy that readily repels water and other environmental wear and tear.
Over time the wood will patina turning to a silvery grey through sun exposure but won’t affect its internal structure. Should you wish to keep your furniture its natural golden tone, then you can apply a sealant to protect the wood. Prior to applying anything to the wood, it is advisable to consult with an expert who is familiar with the process that can assist you in the application.
