At 14mm × 90mm × 450mm, this is the finer-scale parquet block in our invisible-oil range — a tighter weave that reads as more detailed underfoot, well suited to smaller rooms, hallways and period proportions where a compact pattern sits best. Prime AB grade, finished with the same matt, untreated-look invisible hardwax oil.
Herringbone Invisible Finish 90×450 — Engineered Oak earns its place the slow way — morning light, bare feet, ten thousand ordinary days. What you feel is oak; what keeps it behaving through the seasons is the engineered board beneath.
This is a prime AB grade — largely clean boards with only occasional small knots, sitting between prime and classic. The 90×450mm herringbone blocks format is the quiet decision here — geometry doing the decorating.
Surface, upkeep, honesty A floor is its finish as much as its tone: here the invisible-finish treatment sets how Herringbone Invisible Finish 90×450 — Engineered Oak handles daily life. The invisible finish is an ultra-matt treatment that protects the timber while looking and feeling like completely raw, untreated oak.
Care for it with the finish-matched cleaner we supply, and it will keep that just-sanded look for years. Underfloor heating is no obstacle here; the boards are rated for it and hold their shape as the seasons turn.
The rooms, and the decision Hallways, kitchens, sitting rooms, whole ground floors — this is a floor for the rooms you actually use; ask us before specifying it in a bathroom.
