Herringbone Oak Flooring

Herringbone oak flooring brings a refined sense of structure and timeless appeal to any space. At French Oak Floors, we take this iconic pattern and elevate it through the use of premium, sustainably sourced French oak — engineered for stability, beauty, and long-term performance.

Our herringbone oak flooring combines the charm of European design heritage with the strength of modern engineering. The result? A floor that draws the eye, tells a story, and performs beautifully in both residential and commercial environments.

Sophisticated Pattern Meets Everyday Practicality

The herringbone pattern has been a staple of architectural design for centuries — first seen in grand European estates and now reimagined in today’s most stylish interiors. This pattern creates a sense of flow and movement, adding depth to both large and compact spaces.

When used in feature zones such as an entryway or formal living area, our herringbone oak flooring brings character without overwhelming the room.

Thanks to our engineered construction, these floors are not only visually stunning but highly practical. The multi-layered core reduces the risk of expansion, cupping or shrinkage, making them suitable for a range of Australian climates and subfloor types.

Ideal for Residential and Boutique Commercial Spaces

Our herringbone French oak flooring is ideal for homes, galleries, showrooms, and retail fitouts. It adds visual interest and a custom feel that standard plank floors can’t replicate.

Paired with a light or natural finish, herringbone oak flooring can brighten and soften modern interiors. In deeper tones, it creates a moody, textural base with undeniable presence. Either way, the classic pattern lends a sense of craftsmanship that elevates any space.

Engineered for Performance, Backed by Expertise

Each board is made from genuine French oak, a hardwood prized for its density, character, and consistent grain. Bonded to a stable plywood core, our engineered boards are suitable for a range of installation methods and can be installed over underfloor heating.

We use the TREFFERT Sapphire™ Coating System — the best performing scratch-resistant coating system for flooring in the market today. With both exceptional linear as well as rotational scratch resistance, it is highly resistant to scratches during transport, installation, and use.

Our 25-year warranty on all our products covers structural integrity, delamination, and manufacturing defects.

Sustainably Sourced

All our products are certified by PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification), guaranteeing our oak is harvested from well-managed French forests. We have a Chain of Custody Certification which ensures our timber is responsibly sourced and traceable.
