AMERICAN CHERRY FLOORING

Hand Scraped Walnut Flooring

hand scraped


a process used to undulate the surface of wood floors to create an uneven surface, which replicates foot traffic, and wear characteristics of an old floor.


Before sanding machines arrived in the 19202s, floors where scraped to remove the old varnish before a light sand by hand and then refinishing. Real wood floors prepared this way had a slightly undulating finish.


Also called hand-sculpted.  Hardwood planks are individually hand-scraped to create distinctive, one-of-a-kind floors.
