Italian wood flooring crafted from French Oak on our widest plank format offered. At 9.5" wide these stunning floors emphasize the unique character of the wood by hand scraping and sanding each plank's knots and elongated cracks to showcase the beauty and making them smooth to the touch. We then use an environmentally friendly version of a centuries old practice of lime washing. The lime reacts with the wood's tannins to create a truly unique appearance.
