Houses in Madison, Chatham and Florham Park range from Victorian and colonial homes near the town centers to newer builds on larger lots. Our character grade European oak wide plank comes in 9-1/2" and 10-1/4" widths, all wire-brushed, with knots and natural markings.
Here is how to read the range by tone.
Light Natural: Lecce and Cervaro
Lecce has a light natural tone with a wire-brushed texture, and its page describes a warm, organic look from knots and natural markings. Cervaro shares the light natural tone and brushing.
Both are 9-1/2" wide in random lengths up to 87", with most pieces at 87", and a Matte UV Urethane Aluminum Oxide finish. A light floor suits a kitchen and family room at the back of the house, where it keeps the space bright through the winter. See our light versus dark guide.
Natural: Treviso and Fortino
Treviso has a natural tone with a wire-brushed texture, in a 9-1/2" plank with a matte urethane finish. Its page describes knots and natural markings for a warm, rustic look.
Fortino is the same natural tone at 10-1/4" wide, with a wire-brushed texture that its page says highlights the wood's full character. A natural tone suits the main rooms of an older house, sitting comfortably beside original millwork, painted trim and older furniture. Our wide plank guide covers width choices.
Modern Grey: Spello, Mantova and Fossetta
Spello and Mantova both have a modern grey tone with a wire-brushed texture, at 9-1/2" wide with a Matte UV Urethane Aluminum Oxide finish. Their pages describe knots, movement and organic markings for a bold, rustic look.
Fossetta is a modern grey at 10-1/4" wide with a UV Oil finish, for a softer sheen. Grey oak suits a newer house with a cooler palette, or a renovated wing that should feel distinct from older rooms. Our trends post compares tones.

Deep Tones: Prato, Pietro and Valente
Prato has a deep, rich tone with a wire-brushed texture, at 9-1/2" wide. Pietro has a deep, dark tone at 10-1/4" wide, with a Matte UV Urethane finish with Aluminum Oxide.
Valente is also a deep, rich tone at 10-1/4", with the same matte finish and lengths up to 87". Deep tones suit a library, a study or a dining room with paneled walls, where a darker floor gives the room weight and quiet. Pair it with lighter walls and good lighting so the room stays inviting.
Lacquered 10-1/4": Tivolo and Orvieto
Tivolo and Orvieto both have a natural tone with a wire-brushed texture and a UV Lacquer finish, at 10-1/4" wide in random lengths up to 7', with most pieces at 7'. The lacquer gives a clean, even sheen.
Every floor in this range lists custom milling in herringbone and chevron cuts, so an entry hall or dining room can carry a pattern in the same tone as the main floor. Our herringbone and chevron guide explains the difference before you choose a pattern for each room.
