A piece of furniture that is more than design – it is living nature
There are pieces of furniture that fill your rooms – and there are those that tell stories.
This teak root table is not just a side table, but the result of centuries of craftsmanship: The tabletop was shaped by nature over countless years and then carefully exposed, polished, and perfected by hand. Every crack, every line, every branch is a testament to time, to storms and sun, to growth and strength. The integrated glass inlay imitates the course of a tranquil riverbed—unique, like the paths we create ourselves.
Its compact, organic structure and massive, powerful roots make it a symbol of stability and grounding – and at the same time an aesthetic statement in any room.
To whom does this table give a new quality of life?
Imagine a relaxing morning on your balcony: the scent of fresh coffee mingles with the delicate, resinous aroma of teak. Your hand glides over the velvety surface, feeling the gentle indentation of the glass, while the sunlight illuminates the grain.
A couple sits together, laughing, enjoying the moment – this table is not just a piece of furniture, but the center of shared memories.
Or the natural aesthete: They don't seek perfection, but rather character, the history inherent in the wood, irregularity, and authenticity. Here they find everything that industrial mass-produced goods lack—a new little discovery with every touch.
For the design-savvy minimalist, the reduced, organic form is the perfect complement: an art object that is understated yet sets accents.
And last but not least, the globetrotter: The table is reminiscent of distant places, of Indonesia's forests and the unforgettable feeling of bringing home a piece of nature that cannot be repeated.

What makes this table unique?
It's the opposite of mass-produced goods: every branch, every glass surface, and every root tells a new story. No table can ever be made the same way again—not even by the same craftsman. Its robust compactness combined with sensitive design is unmatched anywhere else.
If any piece of furniture has the power to convey a sense of home, security, and adventure, it's this table. Whoever owns it owns a piece of Earth's history and a bridge between nature and craftsmanship.
It is the table that guests touch and ask, “Wow, what kind of furniture is that?” – and you tell them that no one else in Switzerland owns exactly that piece.
Competitive advantages & comparison
-
Craftsmanship instead of machines:
Each table is carefully handcrafted – no two cuts are the same, no surface structure can be replicated.
Industrial products: Mostly made of thin, glued wood, beautifully shaped but soulless.
Our table: solid wood, hand-sanded, form-accentuated and full of life – each piece is designed as a unique piece. -
Material – quality you can feel:
Teak wood with a hardness of over 1500 ibf can withstand water, sun, frost and pressure for decades – it remains dimensionally stable and beautiful where cheap woods give up.
Market goods: spruce or veneer, often treated with varnish and susceptible to damage.
Our table: Pure, vibrant grain, durable, sustainable – built to last for generations. -
Design with soul:
The glass inlay follows the natural course of the root – not glued on, but integrated and individually adapted.
Others: Standardized shapes, no integration of glass or root, rarely unique pieces.
Our table: Each piece is a creative dialogue between nature and man. -
Health & Indoor Climate:
Natural oil and resin have an antibacterial effect, while the characteristic scent of the wood is preserved – no chemicals, no fumes.
Market goods: Artificially treated, often without its own fragrance and without any positive properties for the indoor climate.
Our table: Refreshes and revitalizes your room day after day. -
Sustainability & Origin:
Wood from certified forestry, directly from the source, hand-picked, processed in a resource-saving manner.
Others: origin often unclear, mass production, environmental impact questionable.
Our table: A statement for sustainable luxury – durable, stable in value, ecological.

Is your store near me? Can I compare several tables like this directly?
Our store is centrally located and easily accessible throughout Switzerland. Many customers travel here specifically to compare different sizes, shapes, and grains in person. Your advantage: Every piece is immediately available.
Can I exchange the table or choose a second time if I change my mind?

How long is the warranty and what happens after that?
You receive a 2-year warranty against material and manufacturing defects. Furthermore, our team is always accommodating – and thanks to the robustness of the wood, repairs are usually possible without any problems, even after decades.
Do you support customization? Which components are available?
Yes, almost all dimensions and details can be customized upon request – from the glass design to the root structure. Contact us, and we'll work with you to plan your unique piece.
What type of wood is used and where does it come from?

Are the glass plate and individual parts interchangeable?
Yes, glass inlays and individual components can be replaced or reordered. Please contact us directly in case of damage.
Can I reserve the table?
We offer free reservations for up to one week, and with a deposit we also offer longer storage – up to 3 months at no extra cost.
Why are real hardwood tables more expensive than standard furniture?
The solid teak used is rare and valuable. The raw material alone for a 1-meter-diameter tree slice costs CHF 910 – plus the intricate craftsmanship and unique design. Your table often retains its value even when used.

Our unique pieces retain their value very well and are often resold at their original prices. If necessary, we would be happy to assist you with contacts for a potential resale.
How is shipping and delivery handled? How is it packaged? Will my table arrive safely?
We deliver throughout Switzerland within 2–5 days, carefully packaged on a pallet or with special protection. We cover all packaging costs. Orders up to 30 kg are shipped via post, and orders above this weight are shipped the next business day with Planzer Spedition.
Is this table suitable for outdoor use? Even unprotected?
Yes, teak is the material of choice for garden and outdoor furniture. Even without protection, the table remains weatherproof, stable, and beautiful – just like centuries-old bridges or boat parts made of teak.
