Kasting Dining Table

The Kasting Collection by dBodhi is inspired by worksite scaffolding structures. It is sturdy and solid, yet surprisingly light. Galvanized pipes provide the main framework and combine with laminated teak wood for a look that’s bold, edgy and a bit daring. The castors ensure easy portability, so your décor scheme can be easily changed anytime.

eco living

The dBodhi concept is all about using resources in the most efficient way. When recycling timber they use even the smallest off-cuts most would just discard. What looks like useless scrap wood is taken from old disused houses, bridges and railroads and transformed into beautiful furnishings and decor for your home.

the name
The ‘d’ comes from Raymond Davids, the founders last name, and the ‘Bodhi’ is the Sanskrit word for enlightenment or awakening.

recycled metals
dBodhi’s recycling story began with a trip to the iron foundry on the north coast of Java. Each year 7,200 tons of recycled iron pipe fittings are exported to Europe, Asia and South America, along with producing an 80% share of the domestic market.The amazing part is watching all these steps done by hand from 1,000 workers cutting, pouring, sandblasting and finishing each pipe.

frequently asked questions

What type of finish is applied to the surface of the wood?
The product is sold as unfinished. During the treatment of the wood it is put in a bath which evens out the colours of the different types of pieces that are used and makes it a bit darker, but there is no special finish.

What happens when I spill something on the surface, is it stain resistant?
Teakwood is hardwood so the liquid will not penetrate but will show on the surface. To avoid stains wipe the whole surface of the furniture equally (not just the spill) with a wet cloth.

What guarantee do I have the wood will not expand or split?
It is reclaimed wood. The handmade furniture pieces are a work of art. Cracks cannot be avoided and are in fact a characteristic of the piece.

How do I care for the furniture?
Try to avoid putting the furniture next to the heating. In the winter time, when the house is heated, please put some water in a cup in the room to enhance the humidity. This is good for the furniture, and for your own health as well.

Can the furniture be used outdoors or in a covered patio area?
It’s hardwood so it can be used outside, but please be aware that the colour will change to light grey.

What is the production time of the furniture?
The production time is up to 16 weeks, if not in stock.
