Most teak dinette sets are unfinished natural teak and will gradually weather to a silver-gray patina unless sealed or oiled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLong-Term Outdoor Value\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA teak dinette set usually costs more than many lightweight synthetic alternatives, but Grade A teak is known for lasting for decades with proper use and reasonable care.
