Bark of the Cork Oak Tree

Shaved periodically to provide "cork" for the trade--think wine bottles, bulletin boards, floor tiles. I just laid cork flooring throughout my apartment and am extremely happy with it! It's beautiful and quiet and soft underfoot. . . . . . and natural.

I have included other cork oak images/info in my stream . . . .
