Hickory Select flooring is a premium wide plank hardwood designed for durability and natural beauty in interiors across New York City. Known for its strength and distinctive grain patterns, hickory creates a bold, dynamic look that enhances both modern and traditional spaces. Hickory is one of the hardest domestic hardwoods available, making it an excellent choice for high-traffic NYC apartments, brownstones, and commercial environments. Its natural color variation ranges from light tones to deeper browns, giving each plank a unique character. The Select grade offers a more refined and consistent appearance with fewer knots and reduced variation, while still showcasing the natural beauty of the wood. Wide plank construction creates a seamless, high-end aesthetic with fewer seams, while the durable finish ensures long-lasting performance in busy spaces. At Luxury Wood NYC, we specialize in custom wood flooring solutions tailored to homeowners, designers, and developers seeking premium materials and expert installation throughout New York City.
