Product Info

Tell me about the stone

This Turco Classico Travertine tile is a stunningly warm and creamy beige with a natural mottled effect. It is a classic Italian stone with a soft and smooth texture. If you're looking for a tile to form a neutral base to build a homely design upon, a Turco Classico Travertine is ideal.

Travertine is a natural stone similar to limestone. It is created when layers of minerals are deposited at the bottom of a river or other fast-moving body of water. The pressure of the water above compresses the material to create a durable and hardwearing, yet beautiful stone.

It has long been used to create a similar look to limestone. Both are known for their gorgeously creamy coloring and texture. However, Travertine is often considered more resilient than limestone, as well as benefitting from a lower price point, making it a great value alternative.

Tell me about the tile's finish

This tile comes with a honed finish. The stone is ground to a smooth, flat surface making it perfectly soft underfoot. This creates a stunning matte effect which requires no further polishing or buffing. The final outcome is a contemporary stone finish which will blend into almost any setting.

A honed finish has great traction compared to that of a polished stone. Whilst smooth and flat there is a certain slip resistance which means tiles are safe to walk on even while wet. This makes it the perfect tile for bathrooms and kitchens but also makes great entrance halls.

It is also a durable finish which is not dulled by high traffic. This makes it ideal for use in commercial settings as well as in a busy home environment. A sealant top-up and regular clean is usually all that's required to keep the stone looking its best.

What overall look will I achieve?

Turco Classico Travertine creates a soft and warm feel in any interior. Its creamy beige coloring is the perfect base for almost any design. Create stunning modern interiors or go all out traditional, this stone will have no problem blending in.

If you're looking to achieve a high-end look on a budget, Travertine is the perfect solution. It has all the benefits of a natural stone, without a hefty price tag. The uniqueness of a natural stone should never be overlooked, it adds an elegant design factor to any room, lifting a design above the ordinary to something special.
