Goliath Hardwoods
Brazilian Oak
Brazilian Oak is a collective name for several South American hardwood species that share a similar warm golden-brown to tan color and open grain reminiscent of domestic White Oak — but significantly harder and more rot-resistant. An excellent choice for flooring, outdoor applications, and heavy-use furniture where domestic oak would be suitable but extra durability is desired. The warm color and open grain make it a natural fit for farmhouse and transitional-style interiors.
