Traditional European Oak

European white oak (botanical name: Quercus Robur/Petrea) commonly referred to as common oak, is a high-quality hardwood native to Europe, prominently found in countries like Germany, Poland, France, and England. This wood, distinct from its American counterpart, is renowned for its warm golden brown color, contrasting the subtly lighter, reddish tones of American oak, which exhibits greater color variations. The grain pattern of European oak panels is notably wavy and tighter compared to the straight grain of American white oak.

European oak panels have a warm golden brown color whereas American oak has subtly lighter reddish tones, which can show greater color variations. The grain pattern of these European oak panels tends to be more wavy and much tighter, while American white oak has a straight grain pattern. European oak grows taller than the average American oak species, allowing us to create special order wall panels that are longer and wider making it a natural choice for many design styles. This oak wood is particularly favorable for finishing, with minimal expansion and contraction, making it a preferred choice for furnishings and solid wood veneers.

The real wood wall planks made from European oak are crafted with a natural wood veneer that ensures longevity and endurance, offering confidence in their lasting quality. Whether used in oak veneer form or as solid wood staves, European white oak remains a top choice for those seeking both beauty and durability in wood products.
