What type of wood and finish/stain are these floors?

11 years ago

would love to know the stain/type of floors. we are renovating a duplex unit in the south end (also boston!) and are trying to find a good light weathered grey stain to potentially go on hickory wood floor. looking for a very similar tint to this!

Hello Jonathan,

Thank you for your interest in the floors on this project. The floors are 5" wide white oak. They have been treated (similar to bleaching) to remove any color and then a translucent white stain was applied.

Are you working with a designer on your South End project? I live in the South End as well....really love it!

Best regards,

Tanya
