Our Period skirting board is evocative of Victorian entrance halls and Georgian drawing rooms with doors surrounded by intricately detailed, wide architrave. Rooms were darker then, so the shadow cast by the flickering light would create a wonderful relief on the detail of such decorative framework. It works especially well with wall panelling, creating a fantastic border effect.
Available Sizes
Our larger oak skirting profiles are available in a 20mm thickness, 3m long lengths and heights of between 146mm and 171mm.

Material
Oak
Our Period Oak Skirting Board is manufactured from solid European Oak, which has been sustainably sourced from French sawmills
The premium Oak we provide is a natural product graded to Q-S1/2 and has been kiln dried to an average 10% moisture content. This Oak grade has been sorted, is predominantly clear and will feature occasional knotts. While man made materials like MDF are uniform in appearance, Oak is a natual material that will vary from piece to piece. 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 skirting boards will be supplied unfinished, with knotts unfilled and untreated allowing the customer to install to their prefence.
Storage
Our oak products are machined from kiln dried timber and should be stored in a warm, dry environment. Do not not be stored in cold, damp environments. Before storing make sure all concrete, plaster and other wet works have been carried out.
