Dragon Boat Furniture Collection

Dragon Boat Collection by TREE, Hong Kong
Last year, TREE, Hong Kong’s eco-chic furniture boutique rescued an old traditional teak dragon boat from being disposed of, and skilfully created a limited edition collection of one-of-a-kind shelves, coffee tables and consoles.

The Dragon Boat collection was launched in time for Hong Kong’s Dragon Boat festival. 100% of the profits will be donated to Ecovision, Asia's 11th Annual Hong Kong International Coastal Cleanup Challenge.

TREE’s furniture collections feature many other examples of pieces that have been lovingly handcrafted from abandoned Indonesian fishing boats, railroad sleepers and bridges into unique contemporary designs.
