Travertine

A sedimentary rock which is deposited from the water of mineral springs or streams saturated with calcium carbonate. When pure, travertine is white, but often it is brown to yellow due to impurities. It is a hard and durable stone, typically quite porous with numerous cavities. It is used as floor and wall tiles, for cladding, and to make bathroom items such as basins and stands, vanity tops and baths. We have travertine products and slabs on show at our showrooms in Newbury Berkshire and Basingstoke Hampshire.
