| All our solid teak furniture is handmade by craftsmen from recycled teak. The teak is taken mainly from old houses and bridges that are being demolished to make way for new. |

Traditional Styled Solid Teak Furniture
We only produce traditional solid teak furniture at our small factory in the north of Thailand. The pieces are made by hand, we don't use any machinery. All fittings are in solid brass where required. |

A Common Myth
Many companies stress the age of their teak and use this factor in justifying price. All reclaimed teak is old, when you consider the trees growing life, then its second life as part of a construction, your reclaimed teak will always be around 80 to 120 years old. We offer a solid range of teak furniture at a very fair price, guaranteed. |

| Although we export a small amount of furniture to Europe our core business is Thailand. We source our teak from developing areas of Asia. Areas which have been chosen for major development and have a great surplus of old doors, floorboards, gateposts and bridges. We pay a very fair price for the reclaimed teak and only use reclaimed teak that we have sourced ourselves. |

|
We have a handful of craftsmen (we don't employ children) who each have their own particular style and method, so each piece is original. We will gladly arrange for you to visit our factory to view your furniture being made.
Siam Old Teak is based in Hua Hin, Thailand with a small factory in the north of Thailand. We control all areas of production from sourcing to completion and a manager will be present when we deliver your furniture. |

| In Hua Hin we have all our furniture displayed in a home setting at one of our houses in the mountains just a short drive from Hua Hin. We feel that viewing furniture in this way gives a more realistic picture of space and how the pieces will fit into your home. You can wander around the different settings at your leisure without any pressure or obligation; all our customers so far find this a very agreeable way to view furniture in a relaxed atmosphere. We don't follow a trend, we have found our own little path. |

About Teak
Solid teak is very durable, all the decks on the titanic were made from teak due to its resilience natural oils, strength and beauty. The majority of the park benches still in use in the UK were made from old teak recycled from ocean going ships that were being dismantled.
We don't use sapwood or any kind of veneer, many imitations which are cheaper will usually dry out, split and warp within a couple of years.
