Indonesia's Master Craftsmen

When you consider wooden furniture then a few different types spring to mind. The dark woods of India are very popular, and thatâ€™s because they look good in almost every home. Dark woods, especially with brickwork, give a room a warm, and homely feel, and the materials extremely strong and hard wearing, even for homes with children. Thereâ€™s a texture to a piece of wooden furniture, like a dining room table, or a coffee table, like no other material, and thatâ€™s why you find wooden furniture in so many homes.
If Indian furniture is populist, then furniture from Indonesia is for the specialist. Indonesian furniture is still not widely on sale, in fact many pieces are likely to be labelled as coming from India, but if you can find a retailer who specialises in furniture from this region then youâ€™ll be in for a treat. Thereâ€™s a wide range of woods that are forested in Indonesia, and a great tradition in working with this type of material, so that the colours, shadings, and depths, of the wood are almost endless.
Tangkoko produce ethical wood furniture, which means that the craftsmen are treat in a fair way, with the local village benefitting from their work. Itâ€™s now extremely important to consumers, as there is an better understanding of how buying furniture can affect the people that produce it. Ethically Indonesian furniture can be beautiful, but it can also give you a bit of a glow, as youâ€™re helping to supporting the community that make it.
Thereâ€™s more to buying a piece of furniture though, as they take up a lot of space on a vehicle, which burns fuel. Which is why the delivery cost from many furniture retailers is so high and the rising fuel prices that leads to an impact on the environment before you get the furniture.
One of the best ways to counter this is to carbon offset the delivery, which means that the retailer calculates the amount of carbon used by the delivery vehicle, and then this is â€˜replacedâ€™, by the purchasing trees on your behalf. Thereâ€™s often wrapping that comes with wooden furniture, so Tangkoko will take this away too ( after moving the wood furniture in to the room of your choice), which means that your new, ethically sourced, furniture is as kind to the planet as you can get.
