Teak live edge dining tables — weather-proof slabs with warm golden grain.
Solid Tectona grandis cut into natural-edge tops on steel or solid-wood bases — kiln-dried, dimensionally stable, compliance-documented and container-ready for importers, retailers, online sellers and hospitality buyers worldwide.
The one live edge top you can sell indoors and out.
Teak is the most dimensionally stable hardwood we cut into slabs — which is exactly what a wide, natural-edge top needs to stay flat over years of use. Its high natural oil and silica content gives it the water, rot and insect resistance that makes it the benchmark for outdoor furniture, so a teak live edge table lists into both an indoor dining range and an al-fresco range from a single product. The grain runs warm and straight, from honey through golden-brown, anchoring mid-to-high retail price points and hospitality specifications. We source and kiln-dry teak slabs in Jodhpur, India's largest solid-wood cluster, then pair them with the base, format and finish your market wants.
Dimensionally stable
The most stable of the slab woods — a wide teak top resists cupping and movement, so it stays flat where other woods warp.
Weather-proof
Natural oils and silica resist water, rot, insects and fungal decay, making teak the benchmark for outdoor and patio dining.
Warm golden grain
Straight, even figure in honey-to-golden-brown tones that photographs well and holds premium shelf and spec value.
Indoor or outdoor
One table for two ranges — silvers to a soft grey patina untreated, or holds its golden tone with periodic teak-oil.
Edges, bases, finishes and formats.
Edge & top
Single-slab, book-matched or joined natural edge; butterfly (bow-tie) keys and breadboard ends on wide tops to keep them flat.
Bases
Black powder-coated steel, hairpin, trapezium and wrought-iron frames, or full solid-teak and mixed-wood pedestals.
Finishes
Natural, teak-oil, matte / satin / gloss lacquer and custom stains — low-sheen to high-gloss, all CARB / TSCA-compliant.
Formats
Four- to eight-seat tops, long communal and refectory lengths, and matching bench or chair sets to complete a range.
Buyers use teak live edge tops as headline pieces: statement dining tables for independent retailers and online ranges, outdoor and courtyard tables for hotels, restaurants and cafés, and boardroom or reception tops for contract fit-outs.

Solid teak slabs that clear customs as cleanly as they seat guests.
A live edge top is a single statement of solid wood — which makes legality documentation the difference between a container that lands and one that waits. We cut teak from Vriksh-verified, FSC chain-of-custody stock and prepare EUDR geolocation and deforestation-free due diligence before you ask. US Lacey Act declaration support, UK Timber Regulation, CARB / TSCA finishes and ISPM-15 packing are covered as standard, with SEDEX / SMETA, ISO and SGS behind the production line.

Keeping a teak slab flat and beautiful — indoors or out.
Our teak slabs are kiln-dried to export moisture levels and engineered to move with the seasons — butterfly keys, breadboard ends and slotted base fixings let a wide top expand and contract without splitting. Indoors, the care story is simple: wipe with a soft dry or barely-damp cloth, avoid soaking spills, use mats under hot dishes, and refresh oiled tops periodically while lacquered tops need only routine dusting. Outdoors, teak's natural oils do the work — occasional cleaning keeps it sound, periodic teak-oil holds the golden tone, and left untreated it weathers to a soft silver-grey patina many buyers prefer. We supply finish-specific care guidance per order so retailers and hospitality buyers can brief their own customers with confidence.
Pair your teak tops with matching teak dining benches and teak dining chairs to ship a complete, single-source dining range in one container.
Teak live edge dining tables — FAQs.
Is teak a good wood for a live edge dining table?
Yes. Teak (Tectona grandis) is the most dimensionally stable of the slab woods, which is exactly what a wide natural-edge top needs to stay flat over years of use. Its high natural oil and silica content resists water, heat, rot and insects, so a teak dining table handles daily spills and cleaning better than most, holds a warm golden-brown grain that anchors mid-to-high retail price points, and is the one live edge top a buyer can list into both an indoor and an outdoor-dining range.
What sizes do your teak live edge dining tables come in?
We build to order. Typical formats run from a 4-seat 1400–1600 mm top to 8-seat tables at 2200–2400 mm, with communal and refectory lengths of 2600–3600 mm and slab thickness of 40–75 mm. As an OEM manufacturer we also match your exact length, width, edge profile and base specification.
Can a teak live edge table be used outdoors?
Yes. Teak is the benchmark outdoor-furniture hardwood, so our teak live edge tables suit patio, courtyard and al-fresco restaurant settings as well as indoor dining rooms. Left untreated outdoors, teak weathers to a soft silver-grey patina; teak-oiled, it holds its golden tone. We confirm whether the top and base are finished for indoor, outdoor or dual use at the quote stage.
How do I care for a teak dining table?
Indoors, wipe with a soft dry or barely-damp cloth, avoid soaking spills and use mats under hot dishes; oiled tops benefit from a periodic re-oil, lacquered tops need only routine dusting. Outdoors, teak needs little beyond occasional cleaning and, if a golden tone is preferred, periodic teak-oil; otherwise it can be left to silver naturally. We supply finish-specific care guidance per order.
Are your teak dining tables compliant for import into the US and EU?
Yes. We document FSC chain-of-custody and Vriksh timber-legality on teak, are EUDR-ready with geolocation and deforestation-free due diligence, and support US Lacey Act declarations and UK Timber Regulation. Finishes meet CARB / TSCA Title VI formaldehyde norms and packing is ISPM-15 heat-treated.
What is your minimum order for teak live edge tables?
A trial or sample table can ship LCL (part-container) so you can approve the slab, grain and finish first. For best wholesale pricing thereafter, our standard minimum is one 20ft full container load, and teak tables can be mixed with benches, chairs and other categories into a single compliant container.
Request a quote, or a sample slab, and build your range.
Send your sizes, finish direction and base style, or ask for our catalogue. We quote FOB / CIF from Mundra / Nhava Sheva with MOQs and a 30–45 day lead time, and ship a sample teak table so you can approve the real slab before committing to a container.
