This product is to be replaced with the Forté Artiste Grande range – Coming Soon.
Ground your space with Van Gogh, a wide plank grey-brown timber with a subtle wash effect that embues rustic charm and artistic expression. Van Gogh's rustic-grade Oak wear layer has been intensely smoked, resulting in extreme darkening of the wood colour throughout together with increased colour variation. The surface is heavily brushed to reveal the natural wood grain texture, whilst a subtle white wash lightens the overall look and provides definition to the wood grain pattern. Together with an undulating surface and original saw-markings, you have a look that is reminiscent of hand-cut timber from days gone by. Van Gogh is a signature style that you, too, can enjoy.
What is Artiste Rustic?
Artiste Rustic is a premium collection of pre-finished engineered timber flooring designed to have a rustic time-worn feel. A curated palette of five warm, contemporary colours will transform your spaces into works of art – inspired by legendary artists such as Picasso, Da Vinci, van Gogh, and Vermeer. All colours are available in 250mm wide planks, as well as Herringbone and Chevron patterns. The Artiste collection is produced in a boutique factory in Hungary, from sustainably sourced European Oak. With Artiste Rustic, natural feature such as cracks and knots are celebrated - not erased. Each plank is meticulously crafted using specialised artisan techniques such as wire brushing, hand-scraping and natural drying of knots. These techniques result in a beautiful character-filled products with undulating surfaces and deep wood-grain texture, shrunken knots and cracks and occasional saw-marks - a look reminiscent of hand-cut timber from days gone by. A durable Italian lacquer finish gives the look of a natural oil, without the need for repeated maintenance. The incredible depth and texture of Artiste Rustic products will integrate flawlessly into any classic or traditional interior, and can also be used to add character to more contemporary interiors.
