Thames Hickory makes a striking fashion statement for today's home. The look is inspired by the centuries-old liming technique, originated by European artisans in art houses along the Thames River. Subtle shifts in grey and white wash over each plank, settling deep in the wire-brushed wood grain, creating a contrasting softness that accentuates the natural wood grain and character. No two planks are alike, making your floor a one-of-a-kind work of art.
