D26-27568

D26-27568 is a warm chestnut with a deliberately restrained grain on a matte textured face, four random faces per design. Planks are 8 x 48 inches in glazed ceramic at 9 to 9.5 mm, 5 per carton for 12.91 sq ft and 25 kg. The quiet pattern suits a room already carrying rugs, artwork and furniture, where a figured floor would add noise. With four faces on a long plank, blend cartons before setting. Chestnut hides dust and takes oak, white and black. The matte face grips in a bathroom or hallway and keeps downlights from reflecting off a long run of floor.
