This is a Hickory floor that we did back in 2004 for a builder in Harrison, AR.  This was a very nice home, out in the woods, and the builder wanted a “rustic” theme, so he chose a hickory floor, but wanted a border around the entire area.   You can see at the entry in the front, we bordered around a tile entry area.   This floor was one of the most unique floors that we had done at the time, and was before the hand scraped and distressed period that we are currently in.
