The
Savanna Wood sideboard is a wonderful piece of furniture. The stunning
expanse of exquisite timber that makes up the top is simply
breathtaking. Combined with the beautifully made drawers and perfect
door fronts it one of our most attractive pieces. Normally used in a
dining setting, sideboards are also bought for offices and even very
fancy kitchens.
Our sideboards come in two sizes, 2 and 3 divisions. Both may have a top piece added to form a dresser. All are 20 inches deep (500 mm)

The
Savanna Wood sideboard is a wonderful piece of furniture. The stunning
expanse of exquisite timber that makes up the top is simply
breathtaking. Combined with the beautifully made drawers and perfect
door fronts it one of our most attractive pieces. Normally used in a
dining setting, sideboards are also bought for offices and even very
fancy kitchens. The timber used to build this wonderful piece is probably the finest
and most valuable timber used anywhere in the world to build furniture.
Finest because of its unique properties of extreme hardness and
density (just try to pick up a Savanna Wood sideboard and you will see
what we mean) and beautiful colour and rich close grain, opulently
finished by our expert craftsmen. African hardwoods, and especially the
Zambezi Teak used at Savanna Wood, largely as a result of adaptation to
the tough environment they grow in, are much denser than other
so-called hardwood species used to build furniture. This makes the
timber very difficult to work with, but virtually indestructible. At
Savanna Wood we take great pride and care to build our products to the
highest standards, with the best and most effective joinery methods
being used for each piece. Thus our products will last many generations
if card for.
Valuable because of the rarity of this wonderful resource. At
the turn of the last century railroads were built into Central Africa
to open up the region to trade and administration. The sleepers or
ties used to build these railways were harvested from a locally
available resource, African Hardwoods, and in particular Zambezi Teak.
The majority of these timbers have long since been replaced by
concrete. However, some still exist on old rail lines or in mines, or
were collected by locals when they were lifted to use as fence posts or
building material. At Savanna Wood we have teams scouring Central
Africa for the wonderful and valuable timbers to manufacture into truly
unique Furniture products. However, there are very few timbers left,
and they will increase in value exponentially, as will the Savanna Wood
furniture made from them!
As
with the 3 Division Sideboard, this is a wonderful piece of furniture.
The stunning expanse of exquisite timber that makes up the top is not
quite as large as the 3 division, but just as breathtaking. Combined
with the beautifully made drawers and perfect door fronts it one of our
most attractive pieces. Normally used in a dining setting, sideboards
are also bought for offices and even very fancy kitchens.
The timber used to manufacture your
masterpiece is probably the finest timber utilised anywhere in the
world to make furniture, extremely hard with a fine, close grain and
deep, rich natural colour. Zambezi Teak is a very dense, and therefore
hard, wood. It is sometimes mistaken for Asian, Indian or Indonesian
teak, which is a completely different species. Our Zambezi Teak is very
much harder and more difficult to work. However, because it is so hard
it is extremely resistant to biological attack and physical ware and
tare, and will last, if looked after, for many hundreds of years.
Savanna Wood furniture is designed by professionals to give a uniquely
attractive product. The style reflects the massive strength and
enhances the beautiful grain and coloring of the timber used. None of
our products are stained and filled to hide blemishes or poor
workmanship. We prefer the character of a beautiful, honest piece of
furniture lovingly and painstakingly fashioned by hand.

With
a fine row of drawers atop elegantly turned legs and a lovely slab of
magnificent Zambezi teak to top it all, this is a most attractive side
server that will grab attention wherever it is placed. It looks out of
this world in a hall way with a Savanna Wood mirror above, or against
any wall for that matter. Apart from just looking good, it is a
practical piece with spacious drawers and a wide top surface. It is
also built out the finest timber around.

With
a fine row of drawers atop elegantly turned legs and a lovely slab of
magnificent reclaimed Zambezi teak to top it all, this is a most

It looks out of this world in a hall way with a Savanna Wood mirror
above, or against any wall for that matter. Apart from just looking
good, it is a practical piece with spacious drawers and a wide top
surface. It is also built out the finest timber around.Manufactured from ancient African hardwoods that have
been reclaimed principally from railroads, the timber used was
harvested fifty to a hundred and fifty years ago by early colonial
settlers. We purchase the railway sleepers, or ties, as they are
replaced by concrete. They are now a very rare commodity, and therefore
a unique investment. Because of the rarity of the resource, only a
limited number of pieces can ever be made. Their value is enhanced by
the fact that they are from a fully reclaimed, or recycled, source,
allowing you to enjoy the beautiful grain and texture of probably the
finest furniture wood in the world without any guilt that a tree may
have been cut down to afford you the pleasure!
Because of the years spent on the railway line where the timber is
exposed to the full fury of the elements and massively heavy trains
thundering overhead, it develops a particular character or distressed
look. This happens to varying degrees depending on the length of time
the timber has been down, its position on the line and so on. This
character only adds to the beauty of the wonderful timber from which it
originated.
An investment of a lifetime that will last for many lifetimes.
We do not believe there is any timber in the world with finer qualities
for manufacturing exceptional furniture. Zambezi Teak is extremely hard
with a fine, close grain and deep, rich natural colour. It is harvested
from the vast forests of Matabeleland situated on the fringe of the
Kalahari Desert. The wildness and beauty of the African bush growing on
the deep and ancient sands of the Kalahari veldt belies the savagely
harsh conditions under which diverse species of flora manage to prosper
and grow. To survive these adverse conditions requires a resilience and
toughness unknown in other species. One of the hardest and most durable
of these African hardwood trees, Baikiaea plurijuga,
a.k.a. Zambezi Teak, is amongst the most beautiful timbers in the
world, with a fine, close grain and deep, rich natural colour.
Harvesting is conducted under the strict supervision of the Forestry
Commission, an internationally respected body who are charged with the
preservation and commercial utilization of all indigenous forests.
Savanna Wood pay royalties on all timber cut into a trust fund for the
benefit of the communities living in and around the forests.
Utilization of the payments is decided by the trustees, comprising a
representative of the community, Forestry Commission and Savanna Wood.
Funds may be for schools, clinics, boreholes or other projects that
benefit the community as a whole. Because they benefit financially
from this arrangement, it is in the communities interests to preserve
the forests. Savanna also sponsor other projects to help local
communities reduce dependency on illegal tree cutting.

Identical
to the lovely 3 drawer side server apart from being a little narrower
and having 2 drawers, this version also has a fine row of drawers atop
elegantly turned legs and a lovely slab of magnificent Zambezi teak to
top it all!! It really comes into its own at the end of a hallway or
passage, but looks great anywhere. And oh, that wood
