Timber Information: 

Central Africa is the birthplace of Zambezi Teak, the exquisite wood selected in the assembly of this fine table.  Once used in the construction of the railroads that service the region, Zambezi Teak is well known throughout the area for its resilience against Africa’s natural forces, as well as maintaining its lustrous and attractive exterior.

Savanna Wood has masterfully constructed this wood into the superb Matetsi Rectangular Table.  Each tabletop rests securely on a foundation of two turned pillar legs.  Once in place, discreet steel brackets lock the unit in place.  One can rest assured in the strength and sturdiness of this structure, whist enjoying the handsome aesthetic appeal it brings to the astute eye.

Harvested Zambezi Teak Info 

Zambezi Teak has long been recognised as an astonishing furniture-making timber, being both incredibly strong and stunningly beautiful. The wood is extremely dense, very heavy and almost impossible to break, making it incredibly difficult to work with, but at Savanna Wood we have perfected our methods and see these qualities as positives only, positives that the customer invests in as Zambezi Teak if cared for appropriately will last for hundreds of years.
A testament to the wood’s durability is the fact that in many parts of Africa, still today, Zambezi Teak railway sleepers or “ties” carry the weight of modern day trains despite having been laid down as long ago as the eighteen hundreds.
A magnificent addition to our inspired collection, the Savanna Wood original Matetsi Rectangular Dining Room Table is beautifully supported by solid Zambezi Teak pillars, expertly turned by our skilled craftsman here at Savanna Wood to add to the overall elegance of the piece.

Premium Grade Reclaimed African Hardwood (Subject to availability)

The premium range is made of exceptional sleepers that are of very good quality and exceptional length. These are very rare and difficult to find. However, we offer them to selected clients to build special custom made commissions. They really come into their own in long tables, where we use full length timbers for the top, without any joints in the length of the top, giving a truly magnificent slab of beautiful African Hardwood. We will also prepare a booklet on the origin of the timber and the manufacture of your fine piece, together with a DVD. You will have the satisfaction of knowing that your commission will be truly a unique one of a kind piece. The cost is considerably more, but so is the value!
