The type of teak that grows in Indonesia can be said to be the best type of teak in the world. In Indonesia itself, teak wood only grows in certain areas, especially on the island of Java. Teak wood that is well known for its quality usually comes from Jepara, Blora and Bojonegoro. Teak can grow well in this area because the area has soils with a high lime content and low acidity.
Indonesian teak furniture is usually made from old teak trees that are around 80 years old. So do not be surprised if the price of teak furniture can be higher than other types of furniture. However, even though the price is higher, this teak wood furniture is still popular because of its very strong durability. The reason for the strong durability of teak wood is due to the natural oil and rubber contained in teak wood. All wood contains oil that protects the tree. However, only teak wood can retain its oil and rubber even after being cut and dried.

Jepara is also the center of the teak industry in Indonesia with the majority of the population working as wood carvers with their expertise passed down from generation to generation.
