Perspective: Old Growth Siberian Larch
Every Heart Plank floor is made from the heartwood of a particular specie. One of the most amazing characteristics of our Siberian Larch is that in Perfection Quartersawn Grade, it looks so much like Reclaimed Antique Heart Pine that even experts cannot tell the difference. Actually, all of our Larch grades have a similar look to Reclaimed Antique Heart Pine in their respective grades. Only the knot characteristics are different. Perfection Quartersawn Grade in both species is absolutely clear. So, it is very easy to see how they compare. We post the two grades here so you can take a close look. Prices are also included so that you can see why we are so excited about producing Perfection Quartersawn Grade in Siberian Larch as a lead flooring product.
This is a house that was recently completed that has a tremendous amount of high quality wood in it. All of the floors in the house are the same grade as you see here. The stair cases and kitchen cabinets are also in this same specie. Look Closely! Can you tell whether this material is Reclaimed Antique Heart Pine or Siberian Larch?
