The Beauty of Solid Wood
The beauty of natural hardwood lies in the uniqueness and individuality of each timber piece. Variations in the wood grain, colour, knots and texture are far from flaws, but add character and complement the clean lines of these designs. They are a testament to the authenticity and strength of our products.
No veneered MDF has been used in this product. All the wood is solid timber. Solid timber makes the product far stronger, heavier and of a much higher quality. It is also easier to repair should it get damaged; the joints can withstand greater impacts.
Powder Coated Frame
Powder coating is a safe, dry finishing process that uses finely ground particles of pigment and resin to create a protective finish on steel frames. When applied to steel, powder coating provides a protective barrier against moisture and humidity that helps prevent corrosion and rust. It does not crack, peel, or corrode, and is easy to maintain and touch up if damaged.
Built to last

Beautiful and practical furniture should have cabinets that close with ease. With the strength and ability to hold a multitude of household items, our drawer runners function on the leading edge of furniture hardware technology.

Ancestors Collections by Ethnicraft
The Ancestors Tabwa collection offers timeless centerpieces of minimalistic silhouette with a unique and distinct character. Contemporary wooden furniture are transformed into unique pieces of art where each pattern is carefully carved by our artisans.
Named after the Tabwa culture from Central Africa, the collection’s inspiration comes from their fondness for linear geometric motifs.
The carved parts of our Ancestors Tabwa collection are varnished but to achieve its signature shine a wax is applied.
Care for Teak
No other wood shares teak's exceptional strength and durability. Its resilience is due to its dense structure and high oil content.
Variations in the grain, colour, and knots are inherent to all authentic timber ensuring each piece of furniture has its own unique natural characteristics. We believe that these characteristics bring the piece to life.
Following these simple guidelines to care for your teak piece will keep it looking its best.
Varnished Teak Regular Care
The carved parts of our Ancestors Tabwa collection are varnished but to achieve its signature shine a wax is applied. Even with this preventive and extensive treatment, spills should be removed immediately.
Regular wiping with lint-free cotton cloth or sponge in warm water with mild dishwashing soap solution to remove food & oils stains. Avoid strong & abrasive cleaning products that may cause permanent damage to the wood.
Timber will react to its environmental conditions. It is best to avoid extreme variations in temperature and humidity. The colour of the timber will naturally change over time; extreme exposure to UV light, such as placing your piece in direct sunlight, will quicken this process.
Warranty
Quality comes first; our products are designed and built to last. If you follow our guidelines throughout the life of your furniture piece, you will have a product that ages gracefully and looks its best for years.
5-year structural warranty.
Terms & Conditions apply.
