Our Teak Two products from the Castello deep seating collection have a modern look that adds both charm and convenience to your space. This solid teak sofa has a fine, sanded finish for less long-term maintenance as you enjoy it for years to come. The features of the Castello sofa contain a wide-set frame with a clean, straight constructed form designed to seat 3 comfortably. The back frame consists of horizontal slats and the arms of the sofa are constructed in a boxy manner. In addition, the sofa contains a wide-set bottom frame, creating a more elevated seating appearance. The teak used is plantation grown, European grade teak from FSC-certified upcycled teak wood, gathered from old-growth, FSC-certified forests, across the Indonesian archipelago. The teak wood undergoes a six-week kiln drying process of taking moisture out of the wood. This is important because the moisture in the teak wood is what causes the finished product to shrink or expand with changes in temperature and humidity. Teak is the only material with a natural resistance to water, insects, mold, and mildew, making it one of the most durable materials we carry. This sofa is a combination of machine-made for precision and handmade with traditional Mortise and Tenon construction for smooth and tight joinery to showcase the elements from local artisans.
