Travertine is a beautiful stone used in flooring, wall covering (cladding) and countertops. It is a type of limestone that is formed by mineral springs, especially hot springs. It can be found in white, tan, cream, and even rust colored varieties and is a common building material chosen when people remodel their kitchens, bathrooms, dining and living rooms. It is generally available pre-cut in all the standard tile sizes.
While travertine can be polished to a high-gloss finish, one of it's features are the pitted holes and troughs that can appear in the surface of the stone normally. These pits and troughs can collect dust, dirt or liquids over time. This will gradually darken the appearance of the stone.
