Both are variants of the fishbone inspired pattern. The main difference between them is that herringbone floors are rectangle boards, while chevron boards are cut at an angle. In the chevron pattern, the two planks are angled at the end to come together and form a perfect point. In the herringbone pattern, planks are laid in a zigzag, but stacked on top of each other to create the “point”.

Traditionally, these pattern floors have been quite expensive and take more time to install, because of the specific zigzag nature and the high level of precision required in the installation. But with modern flooring technology, we are able to provide you with "ready-made" Chevron wood flooring boards in our Chevron collection. This ingenious construction of engineered patterned boards enables an easier and faster installation.

In our 2-layer wood flooring Master Herringbone collection, you will find traditional individual planks specifically made for Heriringbone installation.

You may have heard of basketweave pattern flooring, a formation consisting of multiple horizontal and vertical strips, adding en interesting dimension to the interior. Basketweave patterns can be arranged in many different ways. At Kährs, we have taken a modern twist and can offer you "ready-made" engineered parquet flooring boards in Dutch and French patterns.
