The SUJARO Railwoods Collection—Types of Wood

In all of my years traveling, collecting, buying, and selling African art, furniture, and African design components, the one type of African furniture which has most captivated me is this furniture—beautiful, rich furniture custom-made from recycled hardwood railroad ties and railwood sleepers in South Africa. This recycled product, made from four types of naturally weathered woods—teak, yellow jarrah, red jarrah, and panga-panga—is so beautiful that it leaves me looking for more places in my home and galleries to put more pieces. I assure you that the SUJARO Railwoods Collection quality is the best of its kind of furniture offered anywhere, at the best price, and that you will be completely satisfied with your purchase. This is heavy, dense hardwood which has been laying on the African earth for more than a century… it has withstood hot African days and cold African nights and will enhance your home, office, or any environment. We provide full service custom orders, crating and packing, and shipping from deep in Africa all the way to your doorstep. Guaranteed.
