@gfweb, that floor IS gorgeous! One concern I have is how slick it will be for humans if water is spilled. One of my cousins hit a wet patch on her highly polished wood floor, went down hard, narrowly missed the kitchen counter with her head. I think she still had a concussion. They scuffed the surface after that for safety's sake. I'd hate to see you take such drastic action, but I hope you're addressing safety somehow.
Edit: the stone wall with the wooden floor is an exceptionally fine pairing.
