Quick Answer

What is Ash Pearl?

Ash Pearl is a real-wood engineered hardwood floor in a gentle cream tone, with a refined, mostly uniform grain and minimal knots for a versatile, uncluttered look.

Is it waterproof?

Ash Pearl isn't waterproof — it's genuine wood. What its cross-layered plywood core buys you is stability: it resists the swelling and gapping that moisture causes in solid planks, which is why engineered goes where solid can't. Wipe spills promptly anyway.

Can it be refinished?

A professional gauges refinishing by the wear layer — the real wood veneer, not the total plank height. With its 4mm layer, Ash Pearl can usually take two or three professional refinishes.

What does the plank surface look like?

Look closely at an Ash Pearl board and you'll see straight grain with a wavy cathedral figure, its peaks arching gently toward the board ends. Faint mineral streaks trace along the grain, and a single small pin knot near the center adds a quiet bit of natural character. The overall effect is soft and understated, light and clean rather than busy or heavily marked.

Will this color work in my room?

Because Ash Pearl is so pale and warm, it makes the most of natural light: a bright, sunlit room will look especially open and fresh, while in a lower-light space the ivory warmth keeps the floor from going grey or flat. It is an easy color to place, since light floors like this one make compact rooms feel larger and bounce daylight deeper into the space.

Overview

Ash Pearl is a soft, pale cream with warm ivory undertones, a light and airy shade that brightens a space without tipping into stark white. Straight grain flows the length of each board, carrying a wavy cathedral figure with gently arching peaks, faint mineral streaks, and a single small pin knot for a touch of natural character. The tone stays even and quiet, so Ash Pearl opens up a room and keeps it feeling calm and uncluttered. A durable factory finish helps it hold up to everyday foot traffic, which makes Ash Pearl a good fit for living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and compact or low-light spaces that need lifting, anywhere you want a clean, light floor that reflects the daylight it gets.

A pale ivory-cream that opens up a room and quietly reflects whatever light it gets.

Frequently asked questions

How do I estimate how much flooring I need?
Length × width of each room in feet gives you square footage. Add 10% for waste and attic stock. Ash Pearl covers 20.84 sqft per carton — for a 200 sqft room that's about 11 cartons (229.2 sqft). Always round up.

Pro tip: we strongly recommend hiring a licensed flooring contractor to measure before ordering, especially for larger jobs. They'll account for transitions, stairs, closets, and pattern waste that homeowners often miss. Under-ordering means stopping mid-install to wait for another box — and batch matching isn't guaranteed.

Do you offer samples I can take home?
Yes, sample loans are available with a refundable deposit on cash or credit card. We refund the full deposit when you bring the sample back within one week. Call (408) 753-3220 ahead of your visit to confirm Ash Pearl is on-hand — we don't permanently stock every color, and any sample can be out on loan when you arrive. If we don't have one immediately, we can typically order from the supplier. Samples let you see Ash Pearl under your home's lighting, critical for color decisions. Visit us at 891 Laurelwood Rd in Santa Clara.
What's your return policy?
Kapriz ships every order as a special order from our supplier's warehouse — all sales are final.

Always covered at no cost: manufacturing defects, wrong product shipped, delivery damage documented on receipt before the driver leaves.

Why returns aren't default: sending a pallet back involves 6 handoffs and $300–800 freight — Kapriz carries the exposure if rejected.

Rare exceptions: 25% restocking fee + customer pays freight. Never for opened cartons, custom orders, or discontinued runs.

Pro tip: see Ash Pearl in person before ordering — call (408) 753-3220 to confirm showroom availability (samples rotate) or arrange a loan.
