Red Oak Circle Sawn Wood Wall / Flooring
CIRCLE SAWN RED OAK RUSTIC FLOORING
Circle sawn flooring refers to a type of wood flooring that has a distinct, rustic texture due to the way it is milled. This flooring gets its name from the large circular saw blades traditionally used in its production. As the wood is cut, the saw leaves visible, rough, circular marks on the surface, which become a unique feature of the floor.
Key Characteristics:
-
Rustic Look: The circle saw marks give the floor a weathered, aged appearance that many people associate with antique or reclaimed wood. This texture adds warmth and character to spaces.
-
Surface Texture: The saw marks are typically left in the wood, rather than being sanded smooth. This creates a more textured surface that contrasts with the smooth, polished look of more modern floors.
-
Species: Circle sawn flooring can be made from various hardwood species, including oak, pine, and hickory, which add to its versatility and aesthetic appeal.
-
Finish Options: Although the wood is left with saw marks, it can still be stained and finished in a variety of colors, from natural to more bold tones. Some homeowners choose to emphasize the rough texture by using a matte finish or oil-based finish.
-
Durability: The surface texture can help mask scratches and dents over time, making it a durable option for high-traffic areas, but it still retains the natural strength of the wood species used.
-
Applications: Circle sawn flooring is popular in rustic homes, cabins, and farmhouse-style designs, but it can also be used as a contrast in more contemporary or industrial settings.
