The European White Oak Waterton from the Viking Big Sky North Collection boasts a width of 9 1/2″ and a thickness of 3/4″, with a 6mm sawn face wear layer. Its 3-ply engineered solid construction provides superior stability and less susceptibility to environmental conditions compared to 3/4″ solid flooring. Viking utilizes the age-old European craft of fuming wood to change the color, but with the latest reactive stains that work based on the amount of natural tannin in the timber. This creates stunning, natural-looking flooring with warmth and depth of color tones, unlike traditional pigment stains.
