Flamingo Raftwood Rio Grande
Pale greige with silvered ray fleck running through the grain.
As a natural timber product, some variation in grain, tone and knots between boards is normal, and that is part of the character of real oak.

Raftwood Rio Grande is an engineered French oak floor in a pale greige, with silvered ray fleck running through the grain. The tone is cool and quiet against the heavy texture underneath it, a restrained colour on a floor that is anything but flat.
Every Raftwood colour is the same board: rustic-grade French oak, 15 mm engineered with a 4 mm wear layer, in widths of 180 mm and 220 mm and lengths from 1700–2400 mm. The face is heavily textured and hand-worked, with open splits and knots filled by hand, and a tongue-and-groove profile with a bevelled edge. Glue down.
Finished in natural oil. The oil sits in the timber rather than on top of it, so the surface keeps the depth and the matt, raw feel of bare oak. Clean it with a Vienna Woods-approved product for an oiled floor and refresh it with a maintenance oil from time to time; a lacquer product must not be used on it.
Made to order in Europe, allow a European lead time from confirmation. As a natural timber product, variation in grain, tone and knots between boards is normal and is part of the character of real oak. Order a sample to see the colour in your own light.
