Travertine slabs can be processed in various ways, but the four classic treatments are sandblasting, honing, antiquing, and polishing.
Honed travertine has a vintage appearance and an almost oily feel, yet is resistant to scratching and can handle medium-intensity traffic.
The honed treatment is achieved with abrasives. The result is a surface that feels smooth to the touch but looks matte, without any shine, and has marks of time that add warmth to any space. If you like the hygge and wabi-sabi styles for perfect imperfection, you will love this treatment.
From Classic Travertine, we produce cut-to-size slabs according to client-specified dimensions for exterior and interior window sills, stair steps, terrace caps, as well as tiles for interior and exterior wall cladding.
Send us your measurements, and we will propose a detailed cost estimate based on the order quantity, as well as transportation to your address.
The natural patina in the color Noble Rust is what makes travertine truly beautiful and the most preferred choice worldwide!
Considering travertine's formation over thousands of years, this material falls somewhere between limestone and marble. Its structure is influenced by mineral elements brought in by underground springs and rivers, accumulating like stalactites and stalagmites. As a result, travertine is characterized by its porous structure and remarkable creamy color, giving it an antique elegance.
Travertine has been, and continues to be, one of the most used natural stones in interior and exterior design. It is a popular choice for decorating bathrooms, kitchens, as well as house facades, outdoor flooring, and more. It's not surprising—this tradition dates back to the ancient Romans, who built the famous Colosseum almost entirely from travertine. Michelangelo also chose it as the primary material for constructing the dome of St. Peter's Basilica.
Its name comes from the Italian "travertino," which in turn derives from the Latin "tiburtinus," meaning "from the Tiber." Large deposits of travertine are found in Tivoli, Italy, and about 40% of the world's travertine and marble deposits are in Denizli, Turkey.
Though an eternal classic, travertine is also used in modern contemporary architectural design. Architects and designers love the characteristic porous surface of this stone for its natural beauty, diverse shades and patterns, and classic appearance, which suits almost any interior or project—from kitchens to bathrooms, from walls in main rooms like living rooms to architectural features like staircases. Travertine is undoubtedly the optimal luxury choice.
