Travertine

Looking for a way to elevate the look of your outdoor space? Travertine is a great option! As a sedimentary rock formed by mineral deposits in natural springs, Travertine boasts a unique blend of form and function. 

Travertine is best known for its rich, earthy tones—from warm tans to deeper browns—and you'll often see it used in pathways and patios or as a design feature in outdoor kitchens and fireplaces. It is also highly sought after as a material for pool decks and surrounds, thanks to the fact that it stays cooler in hot sun and high heat. What's more, the stone's porous surface provides a non-slip texture for added safety and comfort. Finally, travertine has a knack for withstanding the elements. 

The stone is typically seen in more rustic, Mediterranean-inspired aesthetics, but it can also be used to achieve a more sleek, modern look. Not sure how to best put it to use? Talk to the experts at The Stone Store!
