Origine means “original” in French, and this European oak floor has the appearance of freshly sawn wood, untouched by heavy stains or treatments that would obscure the natural grain. Capturing this raw quality is actually a multi-step process to prepare and treat the wood so that the look retains the perfect natural European oak color.
The Vernal Collection® offers the beauty of a Duchateau floor in a smooth, clean grade with minimal knots or natural cracks. Vernal floors are made from the most rare and select boards. A great choice for both modern and traditional settings, the lustrous colors offer a unique depth.
LOVE EVERY PLANK
DUCHATEAU’s hardwood flooring collections reflect a love for the natural beauty of wood. There will be nuances that create variation between planks—and we want you to love each one. You decide if some planks you’ve received have too much character or not enough, or if some are too light or dark.
