French Oak
Wood Flooring
From the famous forests of Northen France, once land of Druids ( they were named after the Greek word “drys” for quercus), we harvest oak for our exceptional flooring collections. French oak compared to the rest of European oak species is superior in terms of durability, density, sublime grain and high tannic content, facts that explain why it is so cherished by wine-makers all over the world for barrel production and passionate floor-makers with high standards. Because of the rich presence of tannins, we can alter the color of the wood fibers from the inside out, following a 7-step oxidation procedure. Natural shades are develloped, alike the ones that time can give, not stained and false as per the rest of market flooring. Then the boards will be crafted to look aged or contemporary, the knots will be filled or left open, the surface will be oiled or waxed for protection, so that the beauty of this noble grove may enter a second life turn, at your place.
