Aesthetic
Public benches in English parks are made of teak that is nearly a century old. Originally a pretty golden colour, they have taken on a superb silvery grey patina over time. Some prefer the original colour of the young wood, others appreciate the patina that develops over the years when the piece of furniture has been outside for some time... but everybody likes the exotic chic, timeless and premium character of teak that appeals to all generations.
