About unfinished iroko hardwood flooring
Iroko solid wood parquet is a very durable African exotic hardwood floor. Time and daylight bring out the natural grain while deepening its yellow hues into richer shades of brown. Unfinished okan is yellownish in colour tone, but turns dark brownish red with dark brown stripes due to sunlight. It is a moderately heavy block, has excellent durability and hard wearing qualities. Grain pattern is straight or slightly undulating.
