I wish I had more photos of this floor. It is 5" oak stained with a mixture of English Chestnut, & Gunstock satins. Top coated with oil based poly, satin. Very pretty floors. The doors are beautiful. For those of you who do not know what a parlor is..........well, the rich guy in the neighborhood built a funeral home into is own home. I don't know how to explain it any other way. They would open those doors..........roll in the coffin,..............and you would come in the front door, into the Parlor, pay your respects.....then exit the front door. If I am wrong, please somebody set me straight, .....but I think I am close on this. This house was built in the mid 1800's. I love history, & I love the spirits & ghosts that messed with me in the first week of doing these floors. Thank you Jamie, you were incredible to work for. Bancroft, MI
