NEWS ARTICLE ARCHIVESParquetry Flooring from Connollys Timber & FlooringParquetry has been used as a hard wearing, stunning floor covering for centuries. It is still as popular in the twenty-first century as it was when it was used for the floors of grand 15th century cathedrals. George Hudson Parquetry is supplied in two different styles: mosaic and block parquetry. Mosaic is the more traditional style of parquetry. It is created by arranging small "fingers" of selected timber in tiles, then changing the direction of these rows at consistent intervals. The result is a beautiful floor which is a feature in your home, not just a floor covering. Block parquetry can be laid in any pattern using contrasting coloured timbers to create depth in the design. Blocks of timber are manufactured and are laid individually to create the pattern of your choice. There are many popular patterns that can be laid in George Hudson block parquetry, or you can run wild with your imagination and design your own floor pattern or feature block.
