Teak, derived from the tropical hardwood species Tectona grandis, is native to South and Southeast Asia and remains one of the world’s most valued hardwoods. Renowned for its durability, strength, and natural resistance to moisture, teak has historically been used in architecture, yacht building, furniture making, and fine carving.

Lotus Arts de Vivre works with naturally formed teak branches, teak roots, and driftwood, further hand-carving each piece to create sculptural designs that preserve the organic movement and individuality of the wood. To reduce environmental impact, all teak used by Lotus Arts de Vivre is sourced from sustainably managed forestry plantations.
