Rustic French oak floors are characterized by their yellow to brown cognac-like color. The so-called cat paws (small tassels) also characterize French oaks. It is the most popular wood variety for an oak floor. The floorboards are available from 14 cm to 38 cm wide. They can be installed either floating or glued. We have a variety of models of skirting boards, so you can always find the right finish for your wooden floor.

A rustic French oak wooden floor can be cleaned every day. By swiping the floor, you are also maintaining the floor at the same time. View the color chart to compare various finishes of wooden floors.
