Napoleon Fumata 20mm Engineered Wood Flooring

Napoleon Fumata Parquet Panel Flooring

Refine your interiors with our sublime Napoleon Fumata engineered wood flooring. These striking panels are crafted using the highest quality materials to form 800mm x 800mm squares of parquet perfection. The brushed 4mm solid oak veneer displays geometric patterns incorporating diamonds and basketweave for the perfect blend of style and functionality.

Treated with UV lacquer for added protection our Fumata has been designed to withstand the rigours of modern living. The additional layer helps to block direct sunlight damage, surface moisture and dirt penetrating the panels. This slightly glossy finish can be refreshed and rejuvenated with just a swipe of a mop.

Unlike other flooring solutions within our Napoleon collection, the Fumata panels have been hung and exposed to ammonia to darken the tannins within the wood. This specialist smoking technique creates lighter and darker panels as well as lighter and darker areas within each individual panel. The result is a rich, warm and charming flooring solution that showcases the natural grain patterns of oak and the richness of genuine hardwood flooring.

Parquet style floors were utilised by French aristocracy in the late 1600s. The grandest palaces, courts and chateaus adopted oak flooring to replace marble and stone floors that were deemed too expensive, cold and difficult to repair. Harvested and crafted by hand, smaller oak pieces could be shaped and installed in geometric patterns before being polished by hand.

Thanks to modern engineering we can recreate the timeless allure of parquet flooring using more durable and stable materials such as engineered wood. The Fumata is testament to the skill and craftsmanship that our Napoleon range possesses. Order your free sample today and experience the rich character of our smoked versailles panels.
