Teak (Tectona grandis) is an extremely stable wood with outstanding resistance to rot and decay. The heartwood ranges from golden to medium brown with grain that is generally straight but may occasionally be wavy or interlocked. Teak is easy to work and contains natural oils that may require the wood to be wiped before finishing or gluing. Despite these oils, it is known to glue and finish well. Common uses include boats and outdoor furniture. This slab measures 1-1/4" x 9-3/4" x 48-1/4" and has been surfaced on both sides.
