WOOD
Mahogany wood
Our primary raw materials are sustainably farmed solid Mahogany and Mahogany veneer which is specially produced for furniture application.
Mahogany wood is a strong, durable hardwood that is well-suited for furniture making. Its stability, workability, and rich grain make it a preferred choice for pieces meant to last.
Mahogany veneer, which we use where applicable, are thinly sliced real wood skin that are machine laminated onto marine plywood.
Kiln dried
The mahogany we use is sourced from Zamboanga and shipped by container, then kiln-dried at the lumber yard in Valenzuela, Metro Manila.
Each batch of wood we order is individually selected by our team and tested again for moisture content upon arrival at our factory. If the wood doesn't meet our standards, it goes straight into our own kiln for re-drying. This is the first phase of our quality control process to ensure that the best wood goes into every piece that we make.
Sustainably sourced wood
We use sustainably sourced Mahogany wood from licensed local tree farms. Sustainable wood comes from responsibly managed forests that balance environmental, social, and economic considerations.
These tree farms grow, harvest, and process wood in a way that keeps the landscape intact and local ecosystems healthy. This ensures that the environment in which the wood is grown continues to thrive and regenerate for future use.
Mahogany wood is one of the few wood species permitted for commercial use under current forestry regulations, making it a practical and sustainable option for long lasting furniture.
Acacia slabs
On occasion, we take custom orders for sold Acacia slab tables.
The Acacia wood slabs we use are legally acquired from a Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Certified source. We only make them upon order and the size and shape of the slabs are dependent on slab availability at the time of order.
They are finished in oil and wax to highlight the natural wood grain with no sealers and lacquers.
Metal brackets are installed underneath to stabilize the wood. Bowtie joints are added in some areas to also stabilize existing natural cracks and prevent further splitting of the wood.
