Close Installation Method
Made In USA
Imagine a floor that seems to meld two entirely different materials - soft, sensual fabric and strong, solid wood. This gorgeous hardwood has a delicately sueded surface that actually feels soft to the touch. Each unique plank is hand-brushed with firm wire implements, which dig into the soft portions of the wood, leaving the harder minerals intact. The result is a new emphasis on the grain and the six color variations - the grain stands out dynamically, and the colors are enriched.

Close COLOR VARIATION

With hardwood flooring, you have several different Color Variations: Low, Moderate and High. See below for an explanation of the Color Variation types.

Low Variation
This Shaw hardwood contains low to moderate color and character variation within each carton with low to moderate occurrences of knots and minteral streaking. These characteristics are inherent to the wood species. Falls within Low visual and color categories. Installers must work out of several boxes at a time to ensure optimum appearance. Preplanned dry racking will help.
Moderate Variation
This Shaw hardwood contains moderate to high color and character variation within each carton with moderate to high occurrences of knots and mineral streaking. These characteristics are inherent to the wood species. Falls within Moderate visual and color categories. Installers must work out of several boxes at a time to ensure optimum appearance. Preplanned dry racking will help.
High Variation
This Shaw hardwood contains high to very high color and character variation within each carton with frequent knots and very frequent mineral streaking. These characteristics are inherent to the wood species. Falls within High visual and color categories. Installers must work out of several boxes at a time to ensure optimum appearance. Preplanned dry racking will help.

Your dealer will be able to help you decide what color variation will work best for your specific needs.
