ABOUT KAYU  

Kayu is a small furniture production and import company specializing in fine, hand-crafted furniture made from reclaimed, Indonesian teak wood. Founded in 1997, at the end of a 3-year CUSO contract in Surakarta (Indonesia), Kayu began a partnership with a local furniture maker.

The initial impetus for starting the company was to create an economically viable business that embodied both environmental and social responsibility. Our goal from the outset was to develop a company that set itself apart from the large-scale, production and export model commonly found throughout Java and Bali. By taking control of every phase of the business cycle, including the sourcing of wood, design, production, finishing, export and marketing of furniture, we have been able to provide sustainable livelihoods for local craftsmen while remaining viable as a successful business.

It is our commitment to quality and superb craftsmanship, which continues to drive our furniture creations, which combines classic designs with the best of modern eclectic accents and aesthetics of traditional design and durability.

Our aim is to provide our clientele with beautiful furniture that will last a life time.
