French Oak Nostalgic Boards from Renaissance Parquet

French Oak Nostalgic Boards are manufactured by using indirect heat of 1,000 degrees centigrade.
This process changes the surface of every board giving each one its own unique look that cannot be duplicated by machine or by hand.
As the surface has been treated with heat, it naturally hardens to give better wear resistance, and it also means that the client can decide which finish to use.
Thickness: 20mm, with groove & groove straight cut ends.
Widths - 200-280mm random. Lengths 2000-3200mm random
French oak nostalgic boards comes unfinished and have to be finished on site using any of the following products:
- Nostalgic wax (a paraffin based product, also known as 'old style' wax) gives a very authentic look, it is applied in the same manner as the Camelot waxNatural oil gives the floor a darker appearance
- Hard wax oil (e.g. Osmo) gives the floor a darker look, but will also takes away the natural look
- Lacquer, either solvent based or water based (the water based product will keep the floor looking lighter)
- For a very natural look, you can leave the floor untreated and just clean with bleach water
Deviations in colour - Sample boards are only an approximation of colour and
your floor will not match exactly due to variances in sunlight exposure and the natural differences in real wood.
Every batch we make is slightly different because of the natural material, The advantage of this is that it guarantees that every floor supplied is truly unique.
Each order is custom made to width length & grading requirements.
Lead time is 16 weeks average from order confirmation.
