Custom teak furniture Bali means commissioning solid teak pieces — dining tables, chairs, and complete dining sets — built to your exact size, finish, and design, straight from the workshop. At Bali Best Buy Furniture we have crafted made-to-order teak since 2005, using kiln-dried Grade A teak so each piece handles both Bali’s humidity and a four-season climate abroad. As a factory-direct maker, a two-metre solid teak dining table typically runs around $600–$1,200 — without showroom markups.
This page is for buyers who already know they want teak and are ready to order. If you are still comparing woods or choosing a workshop, we link you to the right guides along the way.
What you can order in custom teak
We build custom teak furniture to order, which means nothing is pre-made — you choose the dimensions, joinery, and finish for your space. Our most requested category is the dining room, where a table is often the centrepiece of a villa or restaurant.
Commonly commissioned teak pieces include:
- Dining tables — fixed or extendable, live-edge or straight-edge, 1.6 m to 3.5 m+.
- Dining chairs & benches — solid teak, or teak frames with rattan or upholstered seats.
- Full dining sets — table plus matching seating, finished as one coherent set.
- Sideboards & buffets — to match the dining set in the same teak and finish.
Because each order is bespoke, you control the finish too — natural oil, matte, or a light stain. If you want the broader picture of bespoke work beyond teak, see our overview of custom furniture in Bali.
Why solid teak for a dining table
Teak earns its price at the dining table because it shrugs off the two things that destroy timber: moisture and daily use. Its natural oils resist water rings, spills, and warping, which is exactly what a surface used three times a day needs. That is why a well-made teak table is one of the few pieces you can realistically pass down a generation.
We will not re-explain wood science here — if you want the full breakdown of grades and durability, read our guide on how to choose the best wood for your Bali furniture. And if you are torn between materials for a large table, our teak vs suar wood comparison is the faster read. The short version: teak for longevity and a refined grain; suar for dramatic, affordable live-edge slabs.
How much does custom teak furniture cost in Bali?
Factory-direct pricing means you pay for materials and craftsmanship, not retail overhead — typically saving 20–30% versus a Seminyak showroom. The figures below are 2026 factory-direct estimates for the dining category.
| Item | Material spec | Estimated price (factory-direct) |
|---|---|---|
| Dining chair | Solid teak + rattan | $65 – $130 / unit |
| Dining table (2 m) | Solid teak, Grade A | $600 – $1,200 / unit |
| Dining table (2 m) | Solid suar, live edge | $450 – $800 / unit |
| Sideboard / buffet | Solid teak | quoted per design |
Estimates only — final price depends on timber cost at order date, size, carving, and finish. For the full breakdown across rooms, see our custom furniture price guide for 2026.
How we build your custom teak set
Ordering made-to-order teak follows a clear path, and knowing it upfront helps you plan a villa handover or restaurant opening.
- Consultation & brief — share your space, sizes, and reference images; we advise on proportions.
- Design & quote — drawings, material spec, and a transparent factory-direct price before anything is cut.
- Material selection — Grade A teak for heirloom pieces, or suar for live-edge slabs.
- Kiln drying & production — timber is oven-dried to 10–12% moisture content, then handcrafted. Allow 4–8 weeks.
- Quality control, finishing & delivery — including secure export crating for overseas buyers.

Who orders custom teak dining sets
Custom teak makes the most sense when a standard table simply will not do the job. We see four buyers most often: villa owners who need an exact length for an open-plan space; expats and exporters who need furniture that survives shipping to a cold climate; café and hotel operators ordering matching sets in volume; and interior designers sourcing a specific finish for a client.
[Simulated Scenario — Based on Aggregate Research] A villa owner in Canggu needs a 3-metre table seating ten for an open kitchen. A retail table maxes out at 2.4 m, so a custom Grade A teak table is built to exact length and matched with eight chairs and a bench. Ordered as a set, it ships in roughly six weeks — well within a pre-opening timeline.
Common mistakes when ordering custom teak
Most regrets with teak come from a handful of avoidable errors. Here are the myths worth correcting before you order.
- “All teak is the same.” It is not. Grade A heartwood (high oil, golden, termite-resistant) behaves very differently from sapwood-heavy Grade B/C. Confirm the grade in writing.
- “Cheaper is fine.” The most common corner cut is skipping proper kiln drying. Timber that is not dried to 10–12% moisture content can crack or warp — especially when shipped to a four-season country.
- “I’ll choose the maker later.” Craftsmanship decides whether joints stay tight for decades. If you are still vetting workshops, read about choosing the best teak furniture maker in Bali first.
Your custom teak order checklist
Before you confirm a custom teak order, make sure you have:
- [ ] Exact dimensions of the space and the table footprint
- [ ] Teak grade specified (A vs B/C) in the quote
- [ ] Confirmed kiln-dried moisture content (10–12%)
- [ ] Finish chosen (natural oil, matte, or stain)
- [ ] Lead time agreed (typically 4–8 weeks)
- [ ] Export packing / shipping method (FCL vs LCL) if shipping abroad
Frequently asked questions
How much is a custom teak dining table in Bali?
A two-metre Grade A solid teak dining table is roughly $600–$1,200 factory-direct, depending on thickness, finish, and carving. Live-edge suar tables of the same size are lower, around $450–$800.
How long does a custom teak set take to make?
Most custom teak furniture takes 4–8 weeks to produce, plus quality control and (for overseas orders) export crating. Large villa orders should be planned 3–4 months ahead.
Can you ship custom teak furniture overseas?
Yes. We kiln-dry timber to 10–12% moisture content specifically so pieces stay stable in a four-season climate, and we arrange secure export packing for FCL or LCL shipments.
Is teak or suar better for a large dining table?
Teak is best for longevity and a refined, even grain; suar is ideal for affordable, dramatic live-edge slabs. See our teak vs suar guide for the full comparison.
Do you make matching chairs and sideboards?
Yes. We build full dining sets — table, chairs or bench, and a matching sideboard — finished together so the teak tone and grain stay consistent.
