Roux is one of our smaller detailed designs, its main feature being a leading ‘lip’ on the edge of the board. Roux architraves create a delicate transition from door to architrave, finished with a flourish of simple linear detail at the bottom of the moulding. Being well balanced in detailing. Roux is a versatile profile which will look good in both modern and traditional design schemes. Pronounced: Roo.

This Oak grade has been sorted, is predominantly clear and will feature occasional knotts.

This oak will display varying grains, patterns, colours and knotts between pieces which contribute to this natural products great character, but all of which will vary from piece to piece and are integral to this natural product, and therefore cannot be changed.
Oak Architraves will be supplied unfinished, with knotts unfilled and untreated allowing the customer to install to their prefence.
