Color and Appearance
Sonoma does not publish a written description for Shell, so we recommend seeing it in person in our showroom or at home before you decide. Because it is real wood, every plank is different.
Construction
Engineered construction pairs a real hardwood wear layer with a cross-layered core. It moves less than solid wood through Southern California’s dry Santa Ana winds and seasonal humidity changes. The top layer can be screened and recoated to refresh the finish.

Wood is a natural material. Color, grain and character vary from board to board, and screens and lighting change how a floor looks. Please contact us or visit our Woodland Hills showroom to see it in person before ordering.
