Maile Table | Natural

At Barefoot Gypsy, we fully embrace the natural ageing process of our products. We understand that over time, natural splitting, cracking, and the gradual loss of natural oils may occur. Rather than considering these occurrences as flaws or imperfections, we view them as inherent characteristics that enhance the distinct beauty of our items. They serve as a testament to the natural life and allure of the timber used in our creations.

Our products are meticulously handcrafted from Suar wood by our skilled artisans. As a natural timber, it showcases a variety of colours, grains, and knots that are unique to each piece. These variations are simply the natural character of the timber and should not be considered as defects.

Furthermore, it's important to note that Suar wood will respond to changes in temperature and humidity by expanding and contracting. As a result, you may notice movements and cracks in your items as they adjust. Please understand that this is not a fault, but a natural occurrence within the fibres of a natural product.

We take pride in offering products that embrace the beauty and authenticity of natural materials. The unique characteristics and changes only add to the charm and individuality of each piece.

Excessive humidity fosters the formation of mould, as restricted air circulation and moisture collaborate to establish a microclimate conducive to mould development. Furniture, clothing, and various household items may become susceptible to mould growth under these conditions. It is important to note that when mould appears, it is not necessarily a flaw inherent to the affected items; instead, the presence of humidity or dampness in the air can furnish ample moisture for mould to flourish on any surface. Mould is not confined to specific locations and can manifest anywhere, with humid climates offering ideal conditions for the fungi to proliferate on various surfaces.
