Catalina Teak Collection

Catalina Teak Collection: Celebrate summer year-round, whether you live on the coast, or atop a mountain.  Teak furniture from the Catalina collection epitomizes the laid back lifestyle of coastal living.  Sit back in an adjustable chair or rocker, your feet placed upon a cushioned ottoman. Now close your eyes and relax, and you’ll feel the warm breeze coming off a coastal utopia.  A beachy feel can be created using teak furniture quite easily, as the style calls for natural pieces.

Here are some tips for creating an easygoing coastal style:

• Inside, lighten up walls by painting a creamy white.
• Give ceilings a lift by painting a delicate color of blue.
• Paint porches white, or create a seaside mural underfoot, and situate choice pieces of Catalina furniture for comfortable seating.
• Try a sea grass or bamboo rug under two Catalina side tables to make a small coffee table.
• Shells always make a great display, whether you cluster them in a bowl, let a single shell stand alone, or use them to encrust a mirror, mantle, or chandelier.
• Create shady seating area with a few Catalina chairs, accompanied by a side table or two set underneath a sturdy garden umbrella in a bright color that gives a dash of coastal glamour to your patio or poolside.

Teak is ideal outdoor furniture because it is easily worked and has natural oils that make it suitable for use in exposed locations.  It is durable even when not treated with oil or varnish.  Teak is used extensively in many different crafts from shipbuilding to the making of doors and windows, as it is resistant to water, wind and sun.  It is also very resistant to the attack of termites.

Popular in the 1950’s and 1960’s in a style often known as Danish modern, teak furniture has had a second boom in popularity, making it a sought after wood for the modern patio setting.
