Why is that flooring my favorite?
"No matter what you lifestyle is this natural product has a place in your home. The natural color variations and grain patterns are gorgeous! As the floor ages, it is like a fine wine, it only gets better with age. The natural exotic wood enrichens and becomes beautiful with golden hues and a slight red undertone. Not to mention the natural dark stripping that is the best part of the wood and namesake characteristic. On the same token it is not an over bearing or design specific grain pattern and can go with every lifestyle from contemporary to modern. Thumbs up on the Terre Verte Tigerwood."
