About Douglas Nance Furniture

From the time of tall ships to current day, the finest vessels sailing the oceans are outfitted with quality teak wood. Sailors and ship builders alike know that this quality wood will hold up and perform better than any other wood under the most harsh conditions. That same outstanding durability is what makes teak wood the only choice for the finest outdoor furnishings. Douglas Nance has selected the very best teak wood available and other premium grade materials to create fine teak furniture.

Our philosophy about teak furniture is different than most. While all around we see designs and styles that minimize the use of teak wood by substituting with aluminum or adding sling fabric material, we have gone the other direction. Slim and sleek won't be found in descriptions of our furniture. Instead you'll read masterful, bold and rock solid. Everything in the design of our styles has been about making a statement with teak. From our first ad campaign announcing to all adirondack furniture, "Your king has arrived!", we knew we made teak furniture different than the rest. Which is precisely our point. We added thickness to our parts (some legs are over 1.5" thick!) to give unheard of stability and strength. We added extra dimension to provide more room and comfort than any teak designs we have ever seen before.

We invite you to take a look at our collections to see for yourself how our furniture is different. Take a look at the sloping curves cut into the strong legs. Follow the arching tops as they crown many of our styles. View the thick braces evoking a sense of stability and strength. Compare our weights and dimensions and you will agree that Douglas Nance teak furniture has positioned itself well apart from common and usual.

Again, precisely our point!
