Close to the wood. Close to the makers.
Beautiful furniture starts
with what you don't see.
Where the wood comes from. The care taken in making each piece. The way you look after it at home. For us, sustainability starts with practical choices like these. Let us show you.

Far away.
Close to our hearts.
Our teak furniture takes shape on Java, Indonesia. This is where the makers behind our own teak collection work, paying attention to the wood and the details you will enjoy at home.
We use FSC®-certified teak in our own teak production (FSC® C220387). Read on to find out which products this certification applies to.
Your ideas.
Our workbench.
An awkward bathroom alcove. A shelf that needs to fit just right. A piece of furniture you cannot find anywhere else.
In our own workshop in Tolbert, the Netherlands, we work with solid oak and make furniture to measure. It is where your ideas meet our craftsmanship.

03 / A PRACTICAL CHOICE, RIGHT ABOVE US
Good work starts
on the roof, too.
At Teakea, our choices go beyond the workbench. With 140 solar panels on the roof of our premises in Tolbert, we generate electricity on site.
Solar panels on our own roof.
A practical investment in generating our own electricity.
Made to
be enjoyed.
Cared for to last.
The best furniture is furniture you love living with. The right care helps keep it that way. We can advise you on care that suits the wood, its finish and the way you use it.
Clear about origins
Know what
you bring home.
FSC® C220387 relates to our own certified teak production. We use the FSC® logo for our own teak garden furniture. This certification does not automatically apply to our oak or to other brands in our collection.
We also source wood through partners in the Netherlands. Would you like to know where the wood in a particular piece comes from? Send us the product name and we will look into it for you.

Real questions.

Want to know more about a material or a particular piece of furniture? We are happy to help.
Ask the Teakea team ↗Where is your furniture made?
Our own teak production is based on Java, Indonesia. We make our own oak and made-to-measure furniture in Tolbert, the Netherlands. We also sell other brands, which have their own production locations.
Is all your wood FSC®-certified?
No, this claim does not apply to our entire range. The FSC® information on this page relates to eligible teak from our own production (FSC® C220387). Please ask us about the origins of a particular piece.
How many solar panels does Teakea have?
There are 140 solar panels on the roof of our premises in Tolbert. They allow us to generate our own electricity.
Can you help if my furniture is damaged?
Send us the product name and clear photographs. We will look at the care or next steps that may be possible, depending on the material, finish and damage.
Can I see the wood and furniture in person?
You are welcome at Leuringslaan 40 in Tolbert, the Netherlands. If you would like to see a particular piece or discuss made-to-measure furniture, please contact us before travelling so we can help you plan your visit.
