Incredible 100 Year Old Reclaimed Teak Slab Table

Over the years at Indoteak Design, we have seen many amazing pieces of reclaimed teak come through our doors but there was one batch of solid teak tables from an old military base in Java that caught our attention. Almost 7 years ago, a container arrived that held five pieces of wood that were thirteen feet long and two inches inches thick, weighing in at a staggering 1200 pounds each.

While we wanted to take the time to work on these slabs, we just didnt have the time for custom work with our production schedule.

Indoteak Design Client: Andrea Uyeda of Los Angeles Restaurant ediBOL

Andrea Uyeda of ediBOL shows us that if things are original, made with care, and are of high quality, they tend to be remembered and leave lasting impressions. As it is with our reclaimed teak offerings, so it is with unique food. We recently partnered up with Uyeda and her highly acclaimed restaurant, ediBOL in Los Angeles California, to blend our luxurious reclaimed teak wood into the interior of LA’s hottest new fusion eatery.

Known for her handcrafted, artisan “Bols” as she calls them, Uyeda creates unique offerings, spinning the traditional ramen bowls with more twists and turns than you could imagine.

The Tiny House Project by Ben Hayward

Tiny House: “A small compact living space gaining popularity with young adults looking to downsize their living space and save money.”

Ben Hayward and Indoteak Design teamed up late last year for a project Ben had lined up with HGTV and their program, Tiny House. His concept was to create a unique, totally original mobile home that had a green footprint, a bold design and beauty inside and out. When he asked us to provide the tile for his bathroom, we jumped at the chance to be involved.

Over the months that followed, we found that Ben was a great communicator who was very driven by his passions and his goals.
