Square edged French oak parquet blocks with rusticated finish. The timber for these solid oak parquet blocks is carefully sourced from suppliers in the Normandy region of France for beauty and durability. Individual blocks are 50 cm long by 8.5 cm wide and 2.2 cm in depth. The word parquet derives from the Old French 'parchet' which means 'a small enclosed space'. The method was devised as a warmer and more serviceable alternative to elaborate domestic marble floors which required frequent washing with water that would damage the wooden joists beneath. The earliest instances of its use appear to be in the Bourbon palaces of La Trianon and Versailles in the late 17th Century. Necessity as ever has proved the mother of invention and there are now a great many different forms of parquetry panels to choose from, most named after the famous houses and palaces from which they originate. Price shown is per square metre. There is a lead time of 6 weeks on getting the timber to a shipper.
