By Julienne du Toit. Photographs Chris Marais. Urquhart House, one of the Graaff-Reinet Museums, has one of the best old-time kitchens where you can marvel at Victorian ingenuity and Karoo practicality. Peach pips used to be embedded to strengthen clay floors across the Karoo, according to the late Helena Marincowitz of Prince Albert. After six months, the floor was coated with a layer of aloe juice; this was to keep the insects away. These days, designers from all around the world sing the praises of this uniquely South African flooring technique. So interesting to the eye, so easy to clean, so therapeutic to walk on, beetle-resistant, eco-friendly and warp-free, they enthuse. Freshly varnished with aloe juice, the floor gleams as if freshly polished. One of the rare exceptions is the Elandsberg Wilderness Camp at Tankwa Karoo National Park which features peach pip floors in the open plan kitchens.
