Brazilian Cherry Flooring a Beautiful, Rich Option for Your Maryland Home

Looking for a durable hardwood floor that also offers a luxurious, elegant feel? Look no further than Brazilian cherry, one of the most popular of the exotic hardwoods. Strong and highly resistant to dents and scuffs, Brazilian cherry is extremely versatile and can be used in casual and formal settings, as well as for flooring and indoor and outdoor furniture. Brazilian cherry flooring can be found in stained, unstained, solid, and engineered varieties.

Brazilian cherry, also known as Jatoba, can be found growing in the rainforests of Central America, South America, Bolivia, Peru, and brazil. A canopy tree, Brazilian cherry is impervious to most insects, including termites, and can reach 150 feet tall.

Brazilian cherry offers a unique open grain texture and vivid reddish hues that can be streaked with attractive darker stripes. This type of hardwood can be cleaned using a soft vacuum or broom, never with detergent or soaps, while Brazilian cherry hardwood flooring can be renewed through professional buffing, sanding, and refinishing.

For more information on Brazilian cherry flooring for your Maryland home, contact Floor Gem. Floor Gem specializes in floor installation and maintenance, serving Howard County, Montgomery County, Prince Georges County, and Anne Arundel County, as well as the Washington DC metro area.
