Every once in a while we stumble upon a product that can meet almost every need for our decor. A seemingly timeless piece of artistically crafted, subtle perfection, that cannot easily be dated by its look or color. Provenza is a manufacturer full of creativity, innovation, quality and style. For us, their flagship line has always been the Antico Collection.

A scraped and distressed hardwood floor made out of Hevea, also known as “rubber tree”. Amazingly, this is the same source which produces natural rubber. This exotic species of wood has a beech grain and lots of character. This floor in any room is the perfect accent, or can even stand alone as a focal point of design. The grain is subtle and the colors are natural, “Chamboard” being my personal favorite. With each welcomed guest entering your home, you will instantly see eyes gaze to the floor in awe. With fun facts in tow you have yourself a conversation piece, rich in both style and history.

Whether your decor is Tuscan, Mediterranean, Old world, County cottage or any of the modern variations, this floor delivers. There are many pros to convince you of the value as well as the remarkable beauty of this flooring option… Possibly the most appreciated being how well it will hide the day to day traffic, color coordinate with any furnishing, also being scratch resistant, clearly easy to maintain. Each individual piece is different, you can appreciate how they come together, and provide a natural landscape in your home, and that’s the beauty of hard wood floors.
