European Oak, the king of the temperate forests of central and northern Europe, is one of the most spectacular species of deciduous hardwoods on the planet. It is known for its smooth texture, excellent, consistent color range and straight, tight grain.

Strong, durable, beautiful and majestic in size, the American Oak Tree dominates the deciduous forests of north and central United States. In dense forests oak trees grow up to 130 feet tall producing long, straight logs that are crafted into beautiful flooring planks.

Straight grain, incredible durability and long straight trunks makes White Ash a favored material to craft into impressive floor boards. The American White Ash is close to extinction due to the Emerald Ash Borer, an invasive species that has taken hold in the north American forests. The urgency to utilize this material lies in a tree’s ability to capture carbon from the atmosphere. If left to decay the carbon is released back into the air which leads to warming of the atmosphere. Turning dead trees into flooring and furniture is the best way to keep carbon from entering the atmosphere.

Incredible color, dynamic grain pattern and workability makes the American black walnut a favorite among furniture makers and craftsmen for centuries. Though softer than oak and ash, black walnut can be crafted into amazing floor planks, and is favored in herringbone, chevron and other more traditional parquet.

Heart pine is an incredible building material that makes spectacular floor boards. This wood, often hundreds of years old, are reclaimed from historic buildings across the Eastern States and Industrial Midwest, harvested from the great long-leaf pine forests of the South Eastern United States and used as structural elements in the frenzied construction of the industrial revolution.
