Travertine Tile Range

Travertine tiles are an ideal natural product for creating elegant rooms, in either a traditional or contemporary style, but due to its natural source, retains a classic elegance that transcends time.

Travertine stone is soft and delicate to look at.  The feeling is peaceful and serene.  Travertine colours vary from the softest ivories to the palest creams,  rich shades of golden honey to earthy browns.

Travertine never appears as one solid colour.  The colour tones vary and veins of contrasting colour run throughout the stone.  No two stones are alike.

Travertine tiles are a very dense form of Calcium Carbonate.  The characteristic voids in this material were caused by gases present when the rock was in the molten state.  These voids appear as holes in the tiles and are either filled during the fixing process or at the factory.

FILLED OR UNFILLED

Factory tiles that are honed and filled are usually more expensive.  As with all things quality can vary dramatically as Travertines are often graded into quality groups such as premium and 2nd choice.

WE DO NOT STOCK 2ND CHOICE QUALITY as the quality is so variable, many of the cheap offers on this material  fall into this category (but they are not going to tell you that are they?)
