Arbor Vetum strongly
believes that if something is worth doing then it is worth doing properly.
All of our designs are genuinely made by hand from the finest quality
materials using only traditional carpentry techniques. By concentrating
on these fundamental basics Arbor
Vetum produces high quality furniture to last a lifetime.
We really care about how we make our furniture, it is not simply a production
process for our carpenters but an art form, and whilst many designs will
look the same, every piece will be unique!
Our reclaimed teak
comes in all manner of shapes and surprises, from tiny fittings to massive
ancient timbers. Carefully recovered by hand from old and neglected buildings,
each and every piece of this wonderful wood has a special history and
story to tell. We use reclaimed teak for these reasons:
These ancient timbers
have a beautiful mature grain and colour very unlike new teak which
tends to be very pale and plain in colour. This is achieved because
the timber has been seasoning for almost 100 years and the oils in the
timber have mellowed to a rich golden colour.
As our ancient timbers have been seasoning for such a long time the
timber has become incredibly stable and is capable of withstanding fluctuations
in temperature, weather elements as well as easily coping with the general
rigours of every day use.
These ancient timbers came from very mature trees, and by only using
extremely large beams to make our furniture we make sure that there
is a very high concentration of natural oils within each piece of timber.
The presence of these rich oils makes our ancient teak timbers extremely
dense, strong and perfect for furniture making.

By ensuring that every single piece of our teak comes from carefully
selected and salvaged timbers we eliminate the need to cut down living
teak trees – which helps to preserve natural forests and protect
the environment.
Arbor Vetum prefer
salvaging from early 20th Century structures because the timbers available
from that period were some of the best the world has ever seen. For
instance, we are currently using some fabulous ancient teak beams which
we salvaged last year from an old French Military Hospital c 1904. We
will always be able to tell you where the timber to make your furniture
came from and take pride in the fact that each and every piece of our
furniture has a history and story to tell.
Arbor Vetum was
the first company in the world to be awarded the FSC Recycled label Certificate
No. SW-COC-1461 for wooden products. This guarantees that all of our products
are genuinely made exclusively from post-consumer reclaimed and recycled
wood, in strict accordance with the FSC’s global standards.
Arbor Vetum was
also the first company in Europe to be awarded Rediscovered Wood Certification
by SmartWood (SW-RW-020). This certification ensures that not only does
our wood conform to the highest environmental standards but it has also
been sourced in a socially responsible and historically sensitive manner.
