Zanduri Wood Works

Our Craft

Three generations of Zanzibari joinery, one workshop in Saateni. Every commission is cut, carved and finished by the same hands that measured your room.

01

Sourcing

We buy logs, not boards — certified Mninga, teak and mahogany chosen for grain and age.

02

Seasoning

Timber rests for months so it never twists once it lives in a coastal home.

03

Carving & joinery

Mortise-and-tenon frames and hand-cut Swahili patterns, no shortcuts, no veneer.

04

Finishing

Marine-grade oils and sealants that hold up to salt air, sun and humidity.
