materials

At Fab, we take pride in our locally and sustainably sourced materials, carefully selected to reflect Javanese craftsmanship. Our curated palette of wood types, finishes, weaves, and patterns offers seamless customization, allowing clients to tailor furniture while ensuring quality and design integrity. Integrate these elements into your design to create a distinctive and timeless aesthetic.

how to specify you furniture

hardwoods

Furniture is crafted using reclaimed tropical hardwoods such as teak and ironwood, salvaged from old houses, boats, and bridge structures.

Each type embodies a distinct character: ‘Teak Unique’ preserves the aged wood’s natural patina, rich colour, and weathered texture, while ‘Teak Botanique’ reveals a cleaner, refreshed look by stripping back its surface layers.

extra materials

We integrate a variety of locally sourced materials, including lava stone and organically shaped teak branches, to complement our hardwood selections.

Suar wood is crafted into solid, sculptural furniture, while every piece made from root wood boasts its own unique character.

natural textures

from smooth  to rough

Our texturising techniques bring out the natural beauty of the wood grain.

  • For a sleek and easy-to-clean finish, we recommend our smooth surface option (Texture Level 1).

  • If you’re looking to emphasize the grain’s appearance and make a bold visual statement, our rougher finishes (Texture Levels 2 and 3) are ideal.

sculpted textures

Our selection of hand-crafted sculpting techniques highlights the quality of the material, offering a fresh perspective on its natural beauty.

wood colours

We offer three exquisite finishes for your furniture:

  • Natural ‘Tranquillo’: A soft, calm tone perfect for outdoor furniture.

  • Stained ‘Espressivo’: A pronounced and rich finish ideal for creating warm and sophisticated interiors.

  • Stained ‘Misterioso’: A bold, mysterious choice for striking indoor designs.

wood patterns

Transform cut-off pieces of solid wood into striking designs. Use them for bar fronts, sliding doors, or wherever your imagination takes you.

weave natural fiber

We incorporate natural fibres like bamboo, rattan, and seagrass for indoor furniture.

Woven patterns appear in various furniture elements, such as chair seats, backs, cabinet doors, or wall panels.

weave synthetic fiber

Synthetic rope and rattan are more durable options for outdoor use.

Fully woven designs—like table bases, decorative panels, and baskets—are available to suit your vision.

fabrics

At Fab, we welcome customers’ own fabric selections. We also collaborate with a local fabric importer to provide premium imported brands like Sunbrella.

Alternatively, we offer a curated range of high-quality, locally manufactured upholstery fabrics. These are available at short notice, making them an excellent and cost-effective solution for fast-moving projects.
