Mitred frame of the same wood as the floor looks nice. Handy if you consider that before laying the floor though. It is possible to do it after the fitting but it takes a little bit more fiddling.

It's a shame you don't want the raised trim because it's the easiest one. You can make a thin tapered piece of contrasting or similar wood and glue a piece to the back of it that holds it in the gap. They are a pain to mitre because of the curved surface so best to mitre them before you put the taper on.

What’s the standard way to finish a solid wood floor around a slate hearth? I really don’t want any raised “trim”. Have seen some really nice finishes in the past but can’t recall anything online.
The boards run into the hearth rather than parallel so I will put a parallel piece on the front edge of the hearth but I have no idea what to do with the left/right boards to create a nice join.
Any ideas!
