Coloring of this hardwood is light brown with golden hues. European White oak is often used for furniture, cabinetmaking, boards, doors and flooring.
This board is a more finished kiln-dried board. It is S4S (Surfaced-Four-Sides), meaning it has been clean surfaced on all four sides.
These boards are graded FAS (First and Seconds) on the one side which can allow an occasional pin knot and small defect on the good side. The back side can have a few knots, wane and other minor defects. There can be an occasional end check (small crack at end of board).
