Jewett Farms + Co’s Ash hardwood flooring features a coarse grain that is similar to Oak but the colors are quite different. The natural color of Ash sapwood is light, almost white. The heartwood can be a number of different colors including grey, light brown and pale yellow. Ash hardwood has a uniform grain which creates a consistent appearance in the flooring planks.

Ash has a rich history that involves ancient mythology. The Norse believed that the Ash tree supported the heavens while its roots traversed the underworld. British folklore tells of the healing and protective properties of Ash.

Jewett Farms + Co offer both select and character grade Ash floors as well as several cut options (plainsawn, riftsawn and quartersawn) from our New England headquarters. Ash hardwood flooring is extremely durable, so it can be used in higher traffic areas with less worry about damage and wear. It has excellent shock resistance and there is little movement in performance.
