Vintage Mango:
This product is made from a special hardwood: mango wood from India. This wood type is truly sustainable because it’s a byproduct of an already thriving industry: mango fruit. The trees grow extensively in India and mature quickly: 15 years instead of, for example, oak (50-100 years). The fruit production is good in the tree’s initial period. As it ages, the fruit production decreases. Therefore, this tree is less economically valuable on mango plantations. The solution for mango farmers is to cut down and replant. This method makes mango wood truly sustainable. After its life as a food producer, the wood gets a second life as furniture.

The base of mango wood has a warm color, but there may be color variations in the wood, giving each piece a robust and unique appearance. The wood has some saw cut marks that add a vintage twist.

Finish:
The mango wood is sanded and coated with a sealer and wax layer to protect against water stains.

Material:
Mango wood (& Metal)

Maintenance:
– Occasionally wipe with a lightly damp or dry cloth without heavy stitching to prevent scratches.
– Avoid all cleaning tools with a rough surface.
– Avoid polish or cleaning products containing silicones, as they can dry out natural wood over time.
– Do not use cleaning agents or products containing ammonia.
– Rub wax into the wood for a beautiful shine and a natural protective layer. This also prevents the wood from drying out.
– Mineral (wood) oil can be applied with a cloth. Over time, this will produce a protective surface.
