Travertine
Travertine is a natural stone formed from mineral deposits in hot springs, prized for its warm tones and linear veining. A type of limestone, it comes in vein-cut and cross-cut surfaces across ivory, beige, walnut and silver. Go2Stone supplies travertine slabs cut to 2cm and 3cm for floors, walls, facades and pool surrounds.
