Indonesian Furniture South Africa

Apart from the fact that they continuously lack a great variety of local wood South Africa has a highly developed furniture industry, both in terms of locally made and in terms of imported furniture. It is not a secret that a large majority of furniture sold in South Africa comes from South East Asia, most dominantly from Indonesia. Therefore, several South African furniture producers think that the large amounts of imported furniture harms the local furniture industry, especially because of their extremely cheap prices. Yet Indonesian furniture is beautiful especially when it is represented in its original, classical shapes and ways. In our article, we would like to represent you with some of the Indonesian furniture dealers that deal with the selling of traditional Indonesian furniture.
