Stable and durable, Rift and Quartersawn Oak radiates elegance and beauty.
As the hardest and most durable of the American Oaks, Rift & Quartersawn White Oak is highly valued for its unique straight grain appearance accented with an abundance of figuring known as “tiger striping.”
Quartersawn is achieved by cutting the lumber at a 90-degree angle to the growth rings of the log. This process results in a dimensionally stable hardwood with very low expansion and contraction characteristics. It is also considerably harder
than plainsawn.
These noteworthy qualities have made Rift & Quartersawn White Oak the floor of choice for prestigious homes, palaces, and boardrooms throughout the world.
