Mercier Naked Collection. The naked collection has a color blocker built into the finish to prevent the sunlight from bleaching the color of the wood flooring over time. The contrasting appearance of the Authentic grade is the result of a mixture of all the natural shades of the species dominated by full-bodied tones. Moderate to pronounced variation is to be expected throughout the boards.
