DuChâteau Berne – European Oak Engineered Hardwood Flooring
Inspired by the refined character of European craftsmanship, Berne by DuChâteau brings timeless elegance and exceptional durability to modern interiors. Crafted from premium European Oak, this floor showcases long, straight grain patterns, subtle natural variation, and a beautifully textured wire-brushed surface that highlights the wood’s authentic character. Finished with a luxurious hard-wax oil, Berne offers a rich, natural appearance while providing lasting protection for everyday living.
Built with a high-performance 3-ply engineered construction, Berne delivers outstanding dimensional stability and is suitable for a variety of installation methods, including glue-down, nail-down, staple, and floating applications. Its substantial 5/8" thickness and generous plank widths create a spacious, sophisticated aesthetic that complements both contemporary and traditional spaces.
Sourced from select European Oak forests in Eastern Europe and Russia, Berne features a coarse texture with open pores that enhance its natural beauty. The select-grade veneer provides a clean, refined appearance while maintaining the warmth and authenticity of real hardwood.
