Parquetry Floors

The herringbone pattern dates back centuries and is easily explained as flooring that creates a zigzag geometric effect using small to medium-sized boards of the exact size. Herringbone is a versatile pattern as you can install it with or without a border. We have different borders on display in our showroom.

Herringbone Timber flooring comes in both solid and engineered timber. We have a selection of Australian Timbers and European Oak on display in our showroom.

The standard size for traditional Herringbone Parquetry is 260 mm x 65 mm x 14mm or 19mm. This is available in European Oak & Australian Timber species. European Oak used for the herringbone pattern is also available in larger sizes as in the picture to the left. The sizes we use are 400 mm x 80 mm x 19 mm or 450 mm x 90 mm x 19 mm.

Parquetry is also available in French panel designs, including Versailles and Marie Antoinette.

These patterns are extremely popular and hardwearing. Centuries-old styling still beautiful in our modern new or refurbished homes.

The panels come in 590 mm x 590 mm, 726 mm x 726 mm and 826 mm x 826 mm sizes.

All sizes are 19 mm thick.

These panels are European Oak and can have a clear finish or can be stained

Mosaic Parquetry is often called “finger” parquetry and is laid in a square on square pattern. This traditional style parquetry of the 1950s & 60s is making an enormous come-back with many designers incorporating old style with new techniques.

Mosaic parquetry is available in 2 different sizes:

• 6 Finger – 134 mm (Brushbox, Spotted Gum, Blackbutt, Sydney Blue Gum, Tasmanian Oak)
• 5 Finger – 120 mm (Southern Blue Gum)

All sizes are 8 mm thick.

Engineered Parquetry Flooring in a Herringbone pattern and Chevron pattern have recently become available. These floors like the plank engineered or floating timber floors come pre-finished in a variety of stains. At this stage, they only come in a matte finish. They have 7-10 layers of lacquer applied prior to being UV cured for the longevity of your floor. These are available to view in our showroom.

Engineered parquetry has a 3 mm – 6 mm natural solid timber layer. The timber used is usually European Oak, however, some companies are now making engineered parquetry in Australian Timbers. There are more colours and species available in our showroom.
