BEST WOOD FOR OUTSIDE USE (I)
Sometimes, we want to put wooden furniture outside house for a certain purpose. For example we put bench wooden furniture outside as the seat in a garden. Therefore, we need wooden furniture made from special wood that is strong against weather changes and also termites. So what woods we should use?
TEAK WOOD (TECTONA GRANDIS)
Teak wood is a hard wood. Teak wood is the best quality wood among others. It is a premium wood. It has stunning and interesting texture (fiber). Besides, it is not easily damaged by impact.
Quality levels of teak wood are grade A (best), B (good), and C (standard).
The color of teak wood is vary between light brown to dark brown.
Teak wood is more durable because it contains much natural oil. Eventhough more durable, much oil content makes teak wood not match with solid finishing with bright colors such as white, red, green, etc. It happens because as time goes by, teak wood will release the natural oil that causes stains. It makes yellow stains on the furniture.
Therefore, be careful with the finish types. Use natural finish to avoid stain impression and to bring up beautiful fiber streaks. The beautiful fiber streaks are what furniture lovers seek.
Teak wood grows in Java and Sulawesi Island. Nevertheless, teak quality from Java is considered the best because teak grows well in a dry and calcareous areas like in Java island.
