Teak wood is ideal for outdoor furniture due to its strength and longevity. It’s very useful for patio furniture and flooring. However, while it is fantastic for the outdoors, it can last a lifetime or more indoors. Teak wood is valued not just for its durability but also for its beauty. A touch of its golden brown finish may instantly transform any environment.
Teak wood furniture is typically left unpainted because its natural characteristics allow it to survive a wide range of situations and settings. The one drawback to this lumber is that it discolors over time, giving a pale silverish tone. This may be good for some, while others prefer to leave their furniture a rich, deep brown.

Here are some finishes they can apply to preserve their teak wood furniture:
Oil
If you want to keep the golden-brown color of your teak wood, finish it with oil. Tung, lemon, walnut, or linseed oil, as well as solvents, are used in teak oil treatments. These oil treatments will shield your furniture from UV rays and keep it from graying.
Oil treatments, on the other hand, take natural moisture from your teak wood, which may reduce its usable life. To keep the effects of the oil, you should apply it to your furniture once a year.

Lacquer
Teak can be used indoors for flooring, railings, and posts. The ideal finish for interior teak is wood lacquer. Lacquer finishes are available in satin, medium, and high gloss.
Varnish
Marine varnish is occasionally used for exterior doors and trims, but it is mainly applied on teak wood on decks and ships. Varnish protects your wood by giving it a durable and lustrous finish. It’s time-consuming because you’ll have to coat, strip, and re-varnish treated components on a regular basis.
