A table like a piece of living history
This solid teak root table is more than a piece of furniture—it is the essence of nature, preserved in a unique form. What you see here can never be replicated by any carpenter, factory, or industrial process: Each table is created from a single tree slice, marked by decades, whose lines, inclusions, knots, and edges bear the echo of sun, storms, and time. The surface feels like warm sand on the seashore, and the subtle scent of teak permeates the room, creating a sense of well-being and security.
The shape? Not rectangular, not calculated—but gently curved, with curves and natural cracks that tell stories.
The color? A play of honey gold, amber, and dark accents—as vibrant and deep as a sunset over old trees.
The structure? Free, organic, full of character – tangible and visible in every inch.
Here, living culture, nature and sustainability meet on a new level.

For people who feel, smell, and admire wood – a teak root table is a statement against mass-produced goods.

Anyone who has ever run their hands over the velvety wood understands what "genuine" means.

Those who appreciate clear design will find the perfect balance between functionality and artwork in this table. The table isn't just a part of the room—it's a focal point, a real eye-catcher, and a conversation piece.
