ALBANY ROAD, TOORAK

Versailles floor from French Oak, that was domed, and scrapped to appear like an old floor. This was a renovation by Rob Mills at Albany Road, Toorak. This house was later sold on the market for a record price. This floor was coated with Bona traffic.

END GRAIN COBBLE

This is an end grain cobbled flooring made of French Oak. It has been fumed and waxed in a cellar. Each cobble is 70x70x21mm, and has a slight domed face. 

End grain flooring has been traditional used for industrial applications, as it is very durable, in this application it has a very nice old world feel and it very appropriate in a cellar.
