Why is this flooring my favorite?Being an artist I look for beauty in the simple things and generally turn to nature for inspiration. With the Brazilian Walnut I am never disappointed. It is simply a masterpiece from nature. I love the color variation that the Brazilian Walnut is known for and the element of surprise that comes along with it. Nature’s perfection in the Brazilian Walnut isn’t just skin deep; it also offers another benefit, one that may surprise you. The true beauty lies with its dense grain structure. The Brazilian Walnut is naturally resistant to fire and has a NFPA Class A Rating and UBC Class 1 Rating (the same as concrete and steel). Not only is its color & sophisticated variation breathtakingly beautiful, its Janka rating goes unmatched at 3680. Brazilian Walnut is strong, tough, resilient and oh so beautiful.
