Teak wood naturally expands and contracts with changes in climate, which may result in small surface cracks. These are normal and do not compromise the strength or durability of the furniture.
To protect your pieces and slow down natural weathering, we recommend using our custom-fit outdoor covers designed to safeguard against the elements.
CARE AND MAINTAINANCE
Avoid leaving water sitting on the surface of furniture and cushions.
Use custom furniture covers when items are not in use.
Make sure both the furniture and cushions are clean and dry before covering them.
If possible, remove cushions before covering the frames for extended periods to prevent mold and mildew.
If cushions get wet, prop them on their sides with the zipper down and unzipped to ensure all water drains out.
Preserving the Charm of Aged & Weathered Teak Furniture
With its tightly packed grain and natural oils, teak resists decay, fungus, termites, and pests, making it a top choice for outdoor furniture.
The Weathered Teak finish is crafted through careful wire-brushing and layered paintwork, giving teak a rustic, lived-in beauty. In contrast, the Aged Teak finish enhances subtle texture with light brushing and finishes it with pigment and sealant, capturing the graceful patina of naturally aged wood.
Climate shifts can cause teak to expand and contract, leading to minor surface cracks, but the structural integrity of the frame remains unaffected.
Teak and painted finishes may develop hairline cracks when moisture triggers the wood’s natural movement.
Outdoor exposure will eventually cause the Weathered Teak and Aged Teak finishes to soften and fade, allowing the underlying teak to emerge and develop its characteristic grey tone.
To keep your furniture looking its best, use protective outdoor covers designed to fit perfectly and reduce wear from the elements.
