Real timber, considered design
Thoresby Walnut Plank is part of the Core Grain Nocturne collection, chosen for its timeless plank format, smooth surface and black walnut colour character. Real walnut brings variation that changes with the light and the materials around it. Straight planks let the grain of the timber lead the design. Their uninterrupted lines provide a versatile foundation for relaxed living spaces and more formal interiors.
Natural character
Select grading gives a more uniform appearance while retaining the individuality of real timber. Subtle changes in grain and tone help the floor feel natural without relying on the stronger character of a rustic grade. View a physical sample in the room where the floor will be laid. Daylight, artificial lighting and neighbouring finishes all affect the way its colour is perceived.
Surface and finish
The lacquered finish completes the surface while keeping the grain of the timber visible. Use appropriate cleaning products and protect the finish from grit, standing moisture and unprotected furniture feet. Regular care helps preserve the appearance of the floor as the room is used over time.
Engineered construction
The 14mm engineered construction includes a 3mm walnut wear layer over a multi-ply base. The stated dimensions are 190mm wide × 1900mm long × 14mm thick. Tongue & Groove joints form part of the installation system. Each pack covers 2.888m² before allowing for cuts and waste. Confirm the layout and required quantities with your fitter before ordering.
Planning and installation
The specified installation method is floating, nailed or glued down. A professional fitter should assess the subfloor and follow the product installation instructions. The floor is suitable for underfloor heating subject to those instructions and the requirements of the heating system. It is intended for domestic rooms except bathrooms. Allow for perimeter cuts and the waste associated with your chosen layout.
Choosing your Core Grain floor
Use the photographs to explore the design and confirm the appearance with a physical sample before making your final choice. Real wood naturally varies in grain and colour, so photographs cannot show every possible board. The product carries a 25-year warranty, subject to the applicable terms. Your Core Grain product code is CG-NOC-PL-060.
