“Vecchia Noghera”, in Veneto dialect, means Old Walnut.
This important wood species, used for centuries in the construction of old farmhouses, has been used to create entirely hand-planed planks finished with natural oil and wax.
Walnut is characterised by its different tonal variations, which make it unique.

In Venetian dialect, Noghera means walnut tree. Well known for its typical appearance, its wood has been used since time immemorial to produce elegant pieces of furniture and the floors of old farmhouses. Walnut is a fairly common tree in Italy and is valued for its noble, warm and charming wood.
Cadorin uses this wood today to produce its Old Noghera range of wood flooring from the Epoch Planks collection, available in large sizes and entirely hand planed by Cadorin’s carpenters. The real beauty is in the final colour of the Bark finish, which presents the colour of the wood au naturel. The shades are typical of those found in the bark of a tree trunk (the exterior part of the trunk), ranging from infinite shades of grey and tones of rust, through to more mauvish hues.
