HARDWOOD FLOORING
:
Weldon’s fine parquetry, marquetry, antique
and boarded floors are a defining feature of elegant private residences,
historic public buildings and royal palaces across the British Isles, Europe
and the Middle East. The skill and attention to detail of the company’s
craftspeople is matched only by the breadth and scale of the projects
undertaken. A Weldon floor reflects both the quality of the finest natural
materials and the precision and care of the hands that prepare and lay
each piece. Leading-edge design and quality control technology ensure
that even the most complex designs are accurately and consistently
realised. See also: display entry opposite.
