Add a breath of fresh air to your home with Vintage Pearl Fossilized® bamboo flooring, Cali Bamboo’s February product of the month! The signature choice for airy beach homes and eclectic modern interiors, white wood flooring creates a bright, cheery ambiance for your room.
The whitewash color hue of Vintage Pearl allows for bold patterns, prints, and colors to truly shine. As a neutral, it can draw attention to unique architecture, textures and furnishings of a room. Because white wood flooring visually opens up a small space, Vintage Pearl is an excellent choice for small rooms or rooms with limited natural light.
Like a blank canvas, Vintage Pearl can be blended with a variety of styles and decor to achieve any look you desire. Go for a simple, Scandinavian-inspired look by pairing with all white walls. Or, make a bold statement by juxtaposing the flooring with dark features and hardware. Add a splash of green or blue design accents for a clean, calm living environment reminiscent of a beach house.
When considering Vintage Pearl flooring, be sure to keep your environment in mind. White wood flooring will show dirt more easily, requiring a bit more upkeep and more frequent cleaning. However, the flooring is the hardest in the world with a Janka Hardness rating of over 5,500 pounds, so you can rest assured that it will resist scratching or denting from everyday wear and tear.
Simple but elegant, Vintage Pearl Fossilized® bamboo flooring is fresh, charming, and always in season. Request a sample today and see how this flooring can brighten up your space!
I recently experienced water leakage from my ac unit that caused the flooring in one bedroom and hall to buckle.it was a floating system used if I take it up an glue it back down would that solve the problem?and is it Possible to get pearl white?
Hi Donnie,
The planks that aren’t water damaged should be usable. While we don’t stock Vintage Pearl anymore I believe it still can be special ordered, it just takes a few months to fulfill. Give us a call at 1(888) 788-2254 and ask about special ordering Vintage Pearl Wide Click item 7004007900.

We installed the vintage pearl floor in 2014. We leave at the beach and it has held up very well and still looks great. However, a couple of years ago an area next to a door going out to a balcony area turned yellow. We frequently left the door open so it got quite a bit of sun and at some point we had a small rug there. Don’t know if finish was impacted by sun or some chemical interaction with the rug backing?? , but it looks bad. The finish itself is fine, still smooth, just yellow instead of vintage white. Has anyone else had this problem? Suggestions?
If the spot where the rug was is yellow, it’s a good chance the rug backing reacted with the finish. Not a lot you can do about that now besides covering it with a new rug, ideally one with a fabric backing. You can also email [email protected] they may have more suggestions for you.
My contractor installed our flooring wrong a couple years ago and now ONE piece of flooring has split. Is there ANY way to get one plank of the Vintage Pearl??? I’ll
Let me look into this…
Do you happen to know if it was click-lock or T&G? Can you track down your Sales Order (SO) number by chance?
I did locate a box of Vintage Pearl click-lock. Give us a call at 1(888) 788-2254 and ask the rep about item# 7004007900
Thank you.
We just bought a new house with this kind of flooring, and I’m wondering if it can be refinished to stain it a slightly darker color. (I came to this site to try to determine if this is solid or engineered wood.)
If it’s Cali Bamboo flooring, both our solid and engineered floors can be re-finished.
How can i get a sample piece of this color.
Unfortunately we discontinued the Pearl color. If we get enough requests we can bring a color back or get you on a list for a special order?
Hello, If you guys have any left or make a special order I’d be interested too
Will do Susan.
I would be interested in a special order too if its possible.
So sorry Mike, we are no longer offering special orders of Vintage Pearl.
I would love to have Vintage Pearl back as an option
Hi Kate,
It is still available as a special order, which just have a long production time. If your project is a ways off it might work out. Give us a call and ask the rep about item# 7004007900.
Is this product water repellent or resistant?
Hi Rose,
While the 10-Coat Aluminum Oxide Finish resists water sitting in the center of the plank, if the spill penetrates the seam between planks and sits for an extended period it can lead to problems.
