Artisan

This is Grandeur Flooring's hickory engineered hardwood, with a 2 mm top veneer on a 3/4" thick board. Every colour is brushed and hand scraped, a texture that suits hickory's strong grain and does a good job of hiding everyday scuffs from kids and pets. The ABCD grade means you get the full range of natural character and colour variation from board to board. The boards are rated for on, above or below grade, so the collection can go in a basement as well as on main floors and upstairs.

Boards come in random lengths and are 6-1/2" wide, apart from Eagle at 6". A box covers 20.25 sq ft for most colours and 20.35 sq ft for Eagle. The tones range from natural, beige and reddish through brown and taupe to dark gray and black.

The collection comes in seven colours: Coyote, Eagle, Harvest, Mane, Natural, Northwest and Owl. 22FLOORING supplies and installs Artisan across Toronto and the GTA, with engineered hardwood installation from $4.90 per square foot, including glue and nails.
