About Kingsley-Bate and Teak

British craftsmen of the 18th century discovered what their Eastern counterparts had known for centuries, that teak has qualities unlike any other wood. It's ability to withstand the rigors of adverse climate, yet weather attractively, make it the ideal choice for outdoor furniture. As America's leading manufacturer of teak outdoor furniture, we use only premium quality teak and precise mortise and tenon joinery in the construction of our furniture.

Kingsley-Bate also leads the way in the responsible manufacture of its furniture. Kingsley-Bate is the first American company to use Javanese teak in the manufacture of its furniture. Our teak is harvested from carefully controlled plantations, established in Indonesia by the Dutch in the Mid-19th century. Due to the increasing demand for this beautiful hardwood, Kingsley-Bate now uses a select amount of Burmese teak in its productions. Whether Javanese or Burmese, you can be assured that we use only the finest quality teak in our furniture.

Manufactured with precise mortise and tenon joinery, the furniture is shipped partially assembled. The factory fully assembles each piece prior to shipment to ensure that reassembly will take a minimum of effort and all pieces will fit together to our precise specifications.

Some Kingsley-Bate projects of note include: Disney World, Hyatt Regency, Boston Symphony Orchestra-Tanglewood, Newport Aquarium, Biltmore Estate, Chicago Botanical Gardens, University of California-Berkley, and M.I.T.
