The Manoir Premiere Collection

Manoir Premiere Cognac Clair

French Oak — Belgium

The Manoir Premiere Collection offers French oak in a variety of rich color options. Available in two distinctive surface finishes, brushed or distressed, Manoir Premiere Cognac Clair has a uniquely weathered surface and a light and nuanced sandy blond coloration.

Beneath the Surface

A History of Quality

The raw oak in the Manoir Premiere collection comes from forests throughout southeastern France. The particular climate in this region yields remarkably large, straight logs with a characteristically tight wood grain. The areas are carefully maintained by forest managers, and trees are only harvested once they reach their full maturity, approximately 150 years. The areas are then repopulated with new plantings to ensure the future health of the forest. After fabrication, the planks are transported to Belgium to be hand-finished individually. The rich hues in this collection are achieved using a reactive oxidation process that naturally transforms the color of the wood without the use of synthetic dyes or pigments.

Why do we love it?

The classic appeal of traditional hardwood with unparalleled vibrance and dynamic color variations.

How does it look?

Manoir Premiere Cognac Clair is full of warmth and character, with natural light brown color tones, rich grain and a distinctive weathered finish.

How does it wear?

Minor to moderate wear can be expected over time, depending on traffic. Wood discoloration is inherent with consistent exposure to UV rays.

Where can I use it?

Suitable for indoor use in moderate and high traffic areas.
