Outdoor Benches That Weather Everything

Teak benches aren’t just furniture — they’re heirlooms. Naturally water- and insect-resistant, teak is perfect for gardens, patios, or entryways. It weathers gracefully, gaining a silver patina over time that only adds to its charm.

Counters and Bathroom Vanities

For a modern yet natural touch, teak countertops and vanities pair durability with beauty. Its high oil content makes it ideal for humid spaces, and every board tells a story through its grain and tone.

Live-Edge Tables

Nothing anchors a room like a live-edge teak table. With its rich golden-brown hue and distinct grain, it’s the perfect centerpiece for shared meals and memories. Choose a rough-sawn slab for a more rustic touch.

Custom Shelving and Wall Accents

Bring a touch of the tropics indoors with teak shelving or wall panels. Lightweight yet sturdy, teak adds warmth to minimal spaces and pairs beautifully with metal, stone, or glass.

Cutting Boards and Charcuterie Displays

Small project, big impact. Teak’s natural oils make it food-safe and easy to maintain. Add custom woodburning or engraving for a personal, timeless piece.

Build Something Beautiful

Whether you’re furnishing a home or making thoughtful gifts, teak is a versatile, eye-catching material that’s built to last. And with BodhiSol’s sustainably sourced plantation teak, you can build with confidence — and conscience.
