Parquet, a decorative element steeped in history. Wood has always been very useful to men. People quickly understood this and wood became the flooring in many houses. From the 17th century, parquet flooring became a separate element in interior decoration.
History of parquet: an art above all
Previously, flooring was simply used functionally in homes. Its insulating capabilities make wood an excellent floor. But, a castle in particular will change the perception of men in relation to their floor. 1683, in the most famous castle in France, even the world, one element will particularly attract attention. The parquet floor of the Palace of Versailles then became famous. Made by great craftsmen, Versailles parquet even becomes a laying pattern. Indeed, today we still talk about “Versailles parquet”. The floor becomes a decorative element, the floor becomes “parquet”.
