Vaterra Teak And Rattan Patio Dining Table

Details at a Glance

Grade A Indonesian teak stands up to sun, rain, and temperature swings because its natural oils and tight grain repel moisture and resist decay. The Seasonal Living Vaterra Teak and Rattan Patio Dining Table -- a 102-inch rectangular outdoor dining table seating 8 to 10 -- is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. Hand-woven UV-resistant synthetic rattan accents the teak frame, and the weathered pecan matte finish minimizes the look of weathering over time.

How Does Grade A Teak Hold Up to Rain and Sun?

Grade A teak contains natural oils that prevent moisture from penetrating the grain, so the wood won't rot or warp when left outside in the rain. Its high silica content resists UV damage, so the table won't crack or splinter through full summers of direct sun. The weathered pecan matte finish is factory-applied to reduce visible fading, and the hand-woven Viro synthetic rattan is UV-stabilized to hold color and flexibility through years of exposure.

Do You Have to Oil Teak, or Does It Turn Grey?

You don't need to oil this teak table -- the natural oils in Grade A Indonesian teak are self-renewing, so the wood protects itself without treatment. Teak will slowly weather to a silver-grey patina if left untreated, which is a natural aging process and doesn't affect strength or durability. If you prefer to preserve the original pecan tone, apply teak sealant every season; otherwise, rinse the table regularly with water and mild soap to keep the grain clean, and use the included spun polyester furniture cover during harsh weather or winter storage.

Where Does a 102-Inch Teak Dining Table Work Best?

Position this table on a covered patio or poolside terrace where the 102-inch length seats a full gathering without crowding -- the rectangular shape fits well along a wall or under a pergola. Pair it with weather-resistant seating from LOOMLAN Outdoor's curated outdoor dining tables collection, and add a smaller outdoor coffee table or outdoor console table to complete the zone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this teak table stay outside all year?

Yes -- Grade A teak's natural oils resist moisture and decay, so the table can remain outdoors through all four seasons. Use the included furniture cover during winter or extended periods of severe weather to protect the finish and reduce cleaning.

Will the finish fade in direct sun?

The weathered pecan matte finish and UV-stabilized synthetic rattan are both designed to minimize visible fading. Teak itself resists UV cracking, though prolonged sun exposure will naturally silver the wood unless you apply teak sealant seasonally.

Does teak need to be oiled?

No -- the natural oils in Grade A teak are self-renewing, so you don't need to apply oil to maintain weather resistance. Oiling or sealing is optional and only affects the color, not the durability.

How do I store this table over winter?

Rinse the table to remove debris, let it dry completely, then slip on the included spun polyester cover and store the table in a shed or garage if you prefer. If you leave it outside, the cover alone provides adequate protection.

What size outdoor dining table seats 8 to 10 people?

A rectangular table 96 to 108 inches long seats 8 to 10 guests comfortably; at 102 inches, the Vaterra fits that range and allows elbow room for each chair.

Does this ship free, and is assembly required?

Yes, LOOMLAN Outdoor provides free curbside delivery to the continental USA, and assembly is required upon delivery.
