Mandrake Oak Time Worn 1 Aged Waxed

With wide plank oak floors the natural beauty of the oak really comes to fore when you can see all the detail in a single plank. Its like reading the history of a tree on your floor, its captivating and awe inspiring at the same time. The wider the board the more impressive it gets. Many of our products are available as extra wide planks up to 500mm and in some instances we can produce up to massive 800mm wide planks. With wide plank boards we normally supply in mixed widths of 3 sizes. not only does this provide a more natural look to the floor but also adds interest to the design. With very wide plank floors we recommend 20mm thickness. When specifying extra wide planks do consider the access and delivery restrictions as wide planks and long lengths of 4m require extra space to manoeuvre.  Mandrake oak has Time Worn 1 surface treatment and is finished with oil and then polished with a beeswax finish to enhance the patina.

Aged Wood Flooring - Time Worn Finish Options

Time Worn 1

An incredibly realistic aged floor that reproduces the shrunken timber around knots that take centuries to evolve. Hand made soft rounded bevels and subtle surface textures make this floor truly unique. The surface is further enhanced with standard brushing of the surface with a wire brush to remove softer fibres and creating a natural texture of the surface that follows the grain of the timber. Suitable for rustic grades only and plank widths over 240mm wide

Time Worn 2

Similar to Time Worn 1 treatment but with a much more subtle unevenness. The surface is further enhanced with standard brushing of the surface with a wire brush to remove softer fibers and creating a natural texture of the surface that follows the grain of the timber. The edges of the plank on all 4 sides are made with standard machine made bevels. Suitable for rustic grades only and plank widths up to 290mm wide. Also suitable in Herringbone and Chevron floors.

Time Worn 3

This treatment is achieved by hand working the timber to make deep unevenness of the surface around knots. The surface is further enhanced with heavy brushing of the surface with a wire brush to remove softer fibres and creating a natural texture of the surface that follows the grain of the timber. The edges of the plank on all 4 sides are made with standard machine made bevels. Suitable for rustic grades only and plank widths up to 500mm wide. Also suitable in Herringbone and Chevron floors.

Time Worn 4

Master craftsmen (and craftswomen) hand scrape the surface of the timber with a traditional hand plane as would have been used in centuries past. The surface has an irregular antique rustic look. Additional treatments include hand working wormhole effect to the floor. The edges of the plank on all 4 sides are made with standard machine made bevels. Suitable for rustic grades only and plank widths up to 500mm wide. Also suitable in Herringbone and Chevron floors.
