Teak Garden Table – 40 Modern Design Ideas

You may think that all outdoor wood furniture is the same but that is not quite true. Some furniture is made from low quality wood or porous wood cuts while others are made from materials that can last a very long time.

And choose a garden table in any case means a modern table of good quality that can serve you for a long time.

The garden table in teak is a very good choice. In general, teak wood is a solid wood whose essential oils have remained intact. This is what protects the wood from weather and disintegration. This type of wood has few pores which does not allow water to enter and thus damage it. Check the product sheet before buying your table to see its features. A table made from the center part of the tree will be stronger and more resistant. This table may cost a little more but longevity will be better.

The next thing you need to consider is the look of the table through the years. If you want it to retain its rich brown color, then you need to scrub it with essential oils three or four times a year. But in case you do not have the time or the opportunity to do this, then you should still consider sealing the table which will protect the table for at least two years. You can also alternate the treatment – sealing with essential oils to keep your table in good condition.

Since teak is a quality wood, it is resistant to bad weather. But in case you do not do the sealing or treatment with essential oils, your table will lose its natural color. Under no circumstances should you cover the table with plastic so that the wood can breathe. Teak needs to stay dry and well ventilated. Keep your table in a protected space when you are not using it.
