Hi, I hope everyone's well .i have just assembled and polished this beautiful old eroded teak dining table. It's newly made but built out of really nice old hand adzed teak. I finish all of our dining tables with polyurethane and then a light hard compound wax which gives a really durable but tactile feel. To all of my Indonesian and expat friends ,stay safe and healthy ,my thoughts are with you at this very difficult time. Regards John beach

Hi, I hope everyone's well.i have just assembled another old teak daybed. These typically come from East Java or Madura . These traditional style " Bangku" are dry jointed,,no glue ,just pinned mortise and tenon joints. However when I reassemble them here I use two pack epoxy glue in the joints and tree bamboo tapered dowels to lock the joint in tight. This style of daybed usually features a geometric style of carving as you see by the photos. Stay safe and well, John Beach

Selamat hari raya nyepi to all of my Balinese friends! For those of you not familiar with nyepi,it is the "silent" day when for 24 hours you don't go outside but stay quiet and reflect on the last year. It's a time of cleansing the island and yourself ,through meditation and quiet reflection. nyepi happens once every lunar year and is usually preceded by a parade of "ogoh ogoh" ,huge statues of various types of monsters which were originally paraded through cities and towns to scare bad spirits and entities back into the ocean thereby cleansing the island. Due to covid 19 the parade didn't happen this year,sadly . I have experienced nyepi many times over the years and I love it! So once again I hope it's a good day for you all ! All the best John beach
