At the request of our customers, we made a new model of the Taranto display case!
You can place decorative objects and a lamp on top of this 155cm high and 35cm deep display case.
The black 160cm wide Taranto display case has five shelves and up to 8 meters of storage space behind the glass doors! Its elegant and clear design fits into any interior: modern Scandinavian or classic, country-romantic interior design.
The Taranto display case consists of three parts: a base, a cabinet and a top, or "hat".
The internal depth of the display case is 26.5cm. The lowest shelf spacing is 25.5cm and the others are 27cm.
The wooden parts of the display case are stained black on the outside. The back panel and shelves are teak-colored to create a contrast.

Product information
All our teak furniture is handcrafted in Indonesia, using recycled wood.
The recycled wood we use comes from old demolished Indonesian houses.
Our skilled carpenters create custom-made furniture. The furniture can also be tinted and you can choose a smoother or rougher surface.
The pricing of custom-made products is based on the consumption of wood raw materials, so ordering custom-made products is no more expensive than purchasing an off-the-shelf product.
We also create custom-made furniture based on the customer's own ideas and needs. Tell us your idea in text or with a picture. Our skilled Indonesian partner will model your idea into a 3D image, based on which the implementation will be made.

Important things to know about recycling ponds
The recycled wood we use comes from old Indonesian houses being demolished to make way for brick houses. As a building material, teak has been a truly beautiful and durable material for centuries, withstanding the scorching sun and high humidity and not being liked by pests.
Due to the origin of the wood and the craftsmanship, furniture made from recycled teak is unique.
Wood color, surface and dimensions
Due to fluctuations in humidity, wood aging is a characteristic of teak furniture, just like any solid wood furniture. This means that very thin cracks may appear in the wood, which do not affect its use in any way.
Furniture made from recycled teak is not smooth like furniture made from particleboard. Rusticity is an essential part of this furniture.
All untreated teak furniture has the same tone, but the surface color varies, due to the origin of the wood. Therefore, no piece of furniture is exactly the same, for example compared to the pictures on the online store's website.
Due to handmade nature, product dimensions may be up to 10mm larger or smaller than in the product description.
Yesterday's wall, tomorrow's furniture
Table tops and the tops of sideboards, TV stands and chests of drawers can also have a wooden slot, which we think makes these pieces of furniture fun and unique - by looking at the slot, you can guess whether the piece of furniture used a ceiling beam with a lead-through, or perhaps a floorboard with a hole made for a water pipe. The wooden slot is barely noticeable from a distance, but our skilled carpenters know how to make it so beautifully. And you can't feel the slot with your fingers at all.
Waxing or oiling teak
Teak is a very hard, dense and oily wood that does not absorb anything easily.
There is no need to do anything to an untreated teak surface.
We recommend waxing or oiling surfaces used for cooking or eating.
If you decide to wax or oil your furniture, always treat it on a clean and dry surface. Please note that the treatment will darken the color of the wood. Test the treatment on an inconspicuous area first.
Waxing
Wood wax provides additional protection to the surface, preventing the wood surface from staining.
A clear wax such as Osmocolor clear wax is a good protection and only a very thin layer is needed on the wood surface. The treatment should be done with a good quality brush and a cotton cloth. Do not use a foam brush.
Apply a very thin layer of wax with a brush and wipe off any excess wax with a rag. If you apply too much wax and the surface becomes too dark, let the wax dry completely and then sand the wax off.
Treat the wood on both sides if you are treating a tabletop. The treatment will moisten the wood and if you only treat one side, the wood may start to warp.
You can also tint teak if you want to change its color. However, test the colored wax on an inconspicuous area first to see what the final color will be. Apply the wax in very thin layers. It is easier to add layers if you want to strengthen the color than to sand it off.
Waxing should typically be done every 2 years. You will notice when the surface needs a new waxing. The need for re-treatment depends on the intended use and whether the furniture is indoors or outdoors.
Oiling
If teak is not treated and the furniture is kept outdoors, over time it will turn a beautiful grey. If you want to restore the natural colour of the teak, first sand the surface lightly with sandpaper and then oil the surface.
Teak oil is a good treatment, especially if you keep your furniture outdoors. The oil darkens the color of the teak considerably.
China wood oil also works great for outdoor furniture, but it also darkens somewhat.
Treat the wood from both sides. The treatment will moisten the wood and if you only treat one side, the wood may start to warp.
Oiling is necessary every 1-2 years. You will notice when the surface needs re-oiling. The need for re-oiling depends on the intended use and whether the furniture is indoors or outdoors.
Staining or painting teak
Before surface treatment, make sure that the surface is clean and dry.
Staining
Teak can be stained with a stain intended for hardwood. Stains can change the color. Our black-finished furniture has been treated with a solvent-based stain. The stained surface must be protected with a varnish intended for hardwood.
You can order our furniture pre-stained. Discover the color options
Painting
Furniture that has been previously oiled or waxed cannot be painted or varnished later. If the furniture is to be used outdoors, painting is not recommended as the paint surface will crack.
As teak is an oily wood, priming must be done carefully. Consult the paint manufacturer for painting instructions.
We do not recommend painting teak with light shades because the oil will build up on the paint surface over time and make it look dirty.
