Excellence of Design and Construction in the World’s Finest Hardwood

The World’s Finest Hardwood.

At Savanna Wood we construct our furniture from what we believe is the finest furniture wood in the world, African Teak, a.k.a. Rhodesian Teak. African Teak grows on the deep and ancient sands of the Kalahari veldt under savagely harsh conditions. To survive these adverse conditions requires a resilience and toughness unknown in other species. African Teak is amongst the most beautiful timbers in the world, with a fine, close grain and deep, rich natural colour.

Savanna Wood Furniture carries a Lifetime Guarantee. Terms and Conditions apply.

Source: Reclaimed African Teak.

This characteristic of extreme toughness and the fact that African Teak grows prolifically on the Kalahari sand veldt, made it ideal for the early pioneers at the beginning of the last centaury to build railway lines, factories, sawmills, bridges and much else. Occasionally a building with beams and trusses made of African Teak will be demolished, or a hundred year old section of rail line will be lifted and the sleepers replaced with concrete.(Read more)

Source: Harvested African Teak.

Savanna Wood also harvests African Teak from the huge African Teak forests growing on the largest expanse of sand in the world, the Kalahari Sand Veldt, on a strictly sustainable basis. All harvesting is done after extensive audits to calculate sustainable off take volumes under the watchful supervision of the Forestry Commission. (Read more).
