Oaklore Wallnut

Oaklore Wallnut brings a deep walnut brown to the 8 x 40 inch plank with a matte textured grain. Twelve random faces per design is high for this size, so knots and figure shift from board to board and the floor reads like real walnut rather than a repeat. Glazed ceramic at 9 to 9.5 mm, a carton of 5 covering 10.76 sq ft at 20 kg. The matte face keeps reflections off a dark floor and grips in a hallway or bathroom. Dark wood look tile suits pale walls, brass and light oak furniture, and it gives a large living room a base. Also made in 6 x 36, 8 x 48 and 8 x 56 inch planks.
