We initially began sourcing our products through export companies based locally to produce our furniture. We rented a warehouse in Jepara and hired local staff and began to purchased the furniture direct from the best specialist producers in the area.
This give us the best control over the whole production process from the purchase of the highest grade timber from the Indonesian government control plantations, through the whole manufacturing process, to the purchase of all the brass fittings and packaging.We personally travel to Indonesia each year to visit producers and fine tune product based on your feedback.
We are currently using 9 different family run businesses to produce our furniture and we visit them regularly to check progress and quality. Then each supplier delivers their finished items to our warehouse where we are able to check again for any production faults and every item is then sanded again to give each piece that silky smooth feel.

Are you sometimes stuck for ideas and don't know what to buy for those special people in your life? You want to give something special, that says how much you love and care. The trouble is they might be a bit picky, or they have everything already. But, birthdays, anniversaries or special occasions comes around you come up against that 'old brick wall' time and time again.
Teak's natural oil and rubber content along with its beauty, strength and resistance to weather make it a treasured wood. Teak can withstand a variety of weather conditions - rain, frost or snow, and is immune to rotting, fungi and highly resistant to insects. We take great care to kiln dried each item slowly to reduce the moisture content of the furniture down to below 14% so that the furniture best suits the drier Northern European climate.
A couple of years ago when the old garden bench that we'd acquired with our property started to give out, I wanted something stylish, classical and long lasting. I was delighted to come across the C&T Website and find that their teak is of the highest grade and the teak grown on the island of Java is sustainably sourced from the Indonesian government.
Purchasing teak can be costly, but if you are willing to invest in this sort after wood, you need to know what it is you're paying for. Many retailers of teak garden furniture claim there are Grade A Teak, when in reality, this could just be a scam. The following will help you to clarify the three evaluations of teak, so that instead of speculating teak wood that may not be the desired quality, you can make an educated buy.
Chairs and Tables Limited have sourced its teak (tectona grandis) from the island of Java. The teak used comes from ecologically managed and sustainable plantations in Central Java, Indonesia, which are now owned, managed and regulated by the Indonesian government agency, Perum Perhutani, which are responsible for managing a strict policy regarding the size and quantity of trees felled each year together with annual replanting.

Time and again John Slatter has proved to be an outstandingly helpful and excellent value for money supplier of really high quality garden furniture, from whom we have been we have been fortunate enough to source a wide range of garden furniture including parasols, chairs, tables, outdoor mirrors and trolleys. Couldn't recommend him highly enough.

We ordered the Turnworth Teak 150cm Round Ring Table Set with Lovina Stacking Chairs with a 3m parasol and we are absolutely delighted with the products. The table is a truly beautiful piece of furniture design and looks fantastic in our garden. The chairs work really well with the table and the chair arms can be pulled underneath the table. The design of the chairs is clever so they stack well. The lazy susan is seamlessly built in the centre of the table is another clever feature. I fully recommend these products. The delivery and assembly on-site worked really well. Great products and good service

We purchased a Southwold 90 x 90 table and chairs earlier this year and was so pleased with the quality of the product we purchased a larger one 150 x 90 with more chairs, we can now use the tables individually or put them together to extend. Chairs and Tables customer service is outstanding along with their products. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again ( I still need a teak bench) and highly recommend them.

This is a really great table. We spotted it on line and as we are fortunate to be within striking distance of Chairs and Tables we drove the 30 miles to see the product for ourselves. We ordered it on line that day and it was delivered on time 5 days later. It was assembled quickly and efficiently on our terrace. The table is extremely well made, it’s a great natural colour and will sit 6 comfortably. The lazy Susan is really well integrated. The centre hole for the shade is super, the brass blanking cap is a classy finish. Our only comment is that the lazy Susan might be more practical if it
