Jensen OutdoorForte 28" Ipe Wood Rectangular Side Table

Elegance comes with a side of convenience when you add the Forte 24″ Rectangular Side Table from Jensen Outdoor to your seating ensemble. Place your cup of coffee or a tray of hors d’oeuvres on the ample tabletop in Ipe timber while resting magazines or outdoor essentials on the useful Ipe tray below, all supported by angled legs in solid Ipe timber.

The Forte Collection effortlessly complements any outdoor décor with its fine craftsmanship and the presence of sustainably-sourced Ipe timber harvested from dry, Bolivian forests.

Since 1994, Jensen Outdoor has brought comfort, beauty, and longevity to outdoor living through award-winning design, superior materials, and a commitment to sustainability that includes the use of 100% FSC-certified Ipe timber responsibly harvested from the tropical forests of Bolivia. 

Jensen Outdoor was among the first outdoor furniture manufacturers to receive Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Certification. This certification confirms that the forest is being managed to preserve biological diversity, benefit local people and workers, and ensure economic viability. Through a land-lease partnership with the Bolivian government, Jensen Outdoor manages over 2 million acres of dry-tropical forests in Eastern Bolivia. 

Jensen Outdoor’s Ipe wood is not only incredibly durable, but Ipe hardwood trees grow slowly, taking nearly a century to reach the dimensions necessary to produce the finest, most durable, timbers on the market today. Jensen Outdoor’s materials also include Woven Viro Fiber, powder-coated aluminum, high-pressure laminate, and Sunbrella cushion fabrics. 

Jensen Outdoor exclusively partners with award-winning furniture designers specializing in outdoor wood furniture with a wide array of aesthetic inclinations. Each piece of furniture has been laboratory-tested to the demanding specifications of commercial applications. Commercial specifications far exceed the standards for common residential use.

AuthenTEAK proudly offers Jensen Ourdoor furniture, with White Glove Delivery available. Our experienced team of experts is also available for free consultations to answer any design questions—from product information to spatial planning. AuthenTEAK’s award-winning showroom is located in Atlanta.

IPE WOOD

Protecting New and Newly Cleaned Ipe Products:

In a ventilated area, apply Wood Shield to all clean Ipe surfaces to further protect against water and food stains, then enjoy your new set outside.

As Needed Cleaning Instructions:

Wash your Ipe wood surfaces with a soft towel and mild dish soap, then rinse clean with water. Once complete, allow to dry.

Restore The Deep Chocolate-Brown ‘As New’ Finish:

Ipe naturally develops an elegant silver patina over time when exposed to the elements. To restore the ‘as new’ chocolate brown finish of Ipe wood, follow our simple color-restoration process:

To prepare Ipe for a UV-protective coat of Penofin® Verde Oil Finish, use Penofin® Pro-Tech Wood Cleaner to remove surface dirt, then rinse off with water.

To brighten and re-establish the pH balance of Ipe wood to best accept the Penofin® Verde Oil Finish, use Penofin® Pro-Tech Wood Brightener, then rinse off with water and allow to dry completely.

Apply Penofin® Verde Oil Finish as directed on the can, letting it penetrate for 30 minutes.

To remove excess oil finish that hasn’t been absorbed by the wood, rub the Ipe surface with smooth rags until dry to the touch.

IMPORTANT: Dispose of rags in a metal bucket of water to avoid spontaneous combustion.

After completely dry, apply Wood Shield to timber to provide additional protection against water and food stains.

Customer’s Own Material (COM) and any other material are not covered by this warranty. 

Repair or modification by anyone other than Jensen Outdoor or an approved agent of Jensen Outdoor voids the warranty. Additional exceptions may apply. Freight damage is not covered under our Jensen Outdoor Limited Residential Warranty. 

Jensen Outdoor expressly disclaims all other warranties, express or implied, statutory or otherwise, including but not limited to, any warranty of merchantability, title, non-infringement, or fitness for a particular purpose.

We reserve the right to discontinue or modify any product line or color without notifying the Purchaser. If the original product is not available, we retain the right to choose to provide replacement material of equal value or quality.

This warranty may not be altered or amended except in a written instrument signed by Jensen Outdoor and Purchaser. Under no circumstances will Jensen Outdoor be liable for special, incidental or consequential damages, whether such damages are sought in contract, in tort (including but not limited to negligence and strict liability) or otherwise, and Jensen Outdoor’s liability with respect to defective products shall in no event exceed the replacement of such products or return of the purchase price, as described above.

Some states do not allow the exclusions or limitations of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
