Collection Sem Unique Teak

What is Sem Unique Teak and why is it unique

Sem Unique Teak is a collection of unique pieces in teak, suar wood and live-edge slabs. Because every top comes from a grown trunk, no piece is identical: the outline, the grain and the natural figure differ from item to item. Teak has a warm, golden brown colour and is often finished with natural oil, which reinforces the vintage look. The pieces are selected on the quality of the teak, with attention to durability and appearance. The collection includes live-edge tables in suar wood, coffee tables and solid live-edge slabs.

Properties of teak and suar wood

Teak owes its popularity to a combination of properties. It has a warm, golden brown colour with a natural oil, a vintage character often reinforced by hand-forged details and reclaimed origins, and it is naturally weather resistant, which makes it suitable for covered outdoor use as well. Suar wood, used for the imposing live-edge tables, stands out for its wide tops and lively grain pattern. Together these timbers give the collection a robust, natural and at the same time luxurious look.

Sizing advice for a live-edge table

A live-edge table is a statement, and that is exactly why it pays to settle the size carefully. Allow around 60 cm of table edge per person, and keep generous space around the table so chairs can be pulled up and people can pass comfortably: a substantial top needs more room around it than you might think. Also measure the access to your living room, doors and stairs, so a large top can come in without any trouble. Our advisers are happy to help you choose the right size.

Caring for teak

Teak is low maintenance. Dust regularly and wipe the surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth, followed by rubbing dry. Use coasters under hot and wet objects and do not let moisture stand on the wood. If you want to feed the warm colour, you can optionally treat the wood with teak oil once a year, which keeps the golden brown tone deep and lively. That way your unique piece keeps its character for years.
