Know before you buy
Grade-A Teak refers to the heartwood of the teak tree, which contains high levels of natural oils and rubber. This makes the wood exceptionally resistant to moisture, insects, and decay, making it the gold standard for outdoor furniture.
When left untreated outdoors, the wood will naturally transition from its original honey-brown color to a soft, silvery-gray patina. This weathering process is purely aesthetic and does not compromise the structural integrity of the stool.
You do not need to apply sealants or oils to protect the wood, as the natural oils in Grade-A Teak provide sufficient protection. If you prefer to maintain the original honey-brown color, you can apply a teak sealer, but this requires regular maintenance.
Yes, the high oil content in Grade-A Teak makes it one of the most durable materials for coastal climates. It is naturally resistant to the corrosive effects of salt air and humidity.
For routine cleaning, simply wipe the stool down with a soft cloth, mild soap, and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or pressure washers, which can damage the wood fibers.
