Rustic Oak Herringbone Parquet




This floor is in the study of a house in Surrey. The client is having two rooms fitted with herringbone pattern parquet blocks, which need to be glued down, then sanded and sealed. The study is in oak and the living room is to be in walnut. Both are a natural grade so there is a lot of interesting variations in the grain, pattern and tone. The pictures here show the study more or less complete. We fitted a 5mm walnut inlay into the border in this room. The walnut floor will have a 5mm oak inlay. Both rooms will be sealed with three coats of clear, satin lacquer.
