Forecastle is the latest innovation within the English Native Timbers collection. It is crafted from the very best oak in the species, English Oak. Organic and sophisticated, we have carefully created these gently worn and smooth sanded floors. Refined. Forecastle’s smooth surface brings the wood to life and gives you a greater appreciation for the quarter-sawn and rift-sawn cutting of the wood. The grain and medullary rays are revealed to showcase the wonder of wood. We saw our English Oak logs in the same traditional manner that they have done for hundreds of years. This method is known as quarter sawing. By doing this you get a little less wood from each log, but the usable wood has the best stability possible. Quarter-sawn oak mainly moves in its thickness and not in its width. Truly a magical material. Architectural details for all of our English Native Timbers floors are available. Please care for this floor using Care System 1, designed for use with our Naked Skin Lacquer finish.
