Forté Artiste Rustic Collection - 20mm European Oak Flooring

Product Description

The Artiste Rustic collection is a premium engineered timber collection, designed to have a rustic and time-worn feel, available in plank, herringbone and chevron patterns. 

Artiste products are a generous 20mm thick, with a 5.5 wear layer (planks) or 6mm wear layer (herringbone & chevron patterns). Planks come in generous 250mm widths, exuding a feeling of grandeur and luxury.

Artiste Rustic products feature distinctive characteristics such as undulating surfaces and deep wood-grain texture, shrunken knots and cracks and occasional saw-marks - a look reminiscent of hand-cut timber from days gone by.

A durable Italian lacquer finish provides the look of a natural oil, without the need for repeated maintenance. Products in this collection feature a multi-layer engineered construction, which provides excellent stability and is likely to outlast any solid timber product of the same dimensions. 

Artiste Rustic - being a thicker 20mm product - is more suited to use as flooring, but can also be used on walls and ceilings. It can be used in both residential and commercial spaces. Artiste 250mm wide planks are not recommended for use with under floor heating - however 220mm wide planks that are compatible with under floor heating are available by special order.
