Travertine slabs are cut from blocks at different levels of thickness, and a possible cut-to-size is the tile; depending on the required kind of cut required, it is possible to apply vein or cross cut, which refers to the direction of cut, the first is perpendicular to the stratification instead the second is parallel to the stratification. The cutting of travertine is very important as the final result is so different that suggests two different materials, even if they come from the same block.
Unfilled travertine means that travertine is not treated therefore it remains in its natural porous state. The holes are exposed creating a rustic-looking finish. Filled travertine means that the travertine’s pores are filled with transparent or colour-matched material (cement, mastic, resin), creating a smooth homogenous surface.
The beauty of travertine is enhanced thanks to the numerous finishing methods, every finish aims to display the travertine’s natural beauty, we are able to guarantee different finishes; the most famous and sought-after are: saw cut, brushed, bush hammered, polished, and honed.
