European oak, rift cut: a warm golden-brown with a straight, even pinstripe and no fleck.
Botanical name: Quercus robur / Quercus petraea
Rift cutting gives straight parallel grain without the silver fleck of a quarter cut or the arches of a crown. European oak runs warmer and tighter than American.
Also held as edging. Leaves are generally available from 2500 to 3600 mm long. 3600 mm is always in short supply and needs its availability checked before it is specified. Natural timber, so it never repeats and colour and figure vary log to log: match a continuing job to the original order rather than to this page.
