French bleeding originated in Europe during the 17th century. The bleeding process, often done by indroducing a dark stain, presents a rustic old-world charm. This flooring style gained popularity for its unique aesthetics and its ability to hide dirt and damage. French bleeding is available in our handscraped floors as well as our non textured floors. No matter the theme of your home, the style of a french bled floor is also very versatile.
