Travertine Silver
Silver Travertine , coming from Italy, has a light gray background and is crossed by particular white veins which are one of the main characteristics of this type of travertine. The material is suitable for internal spaces , external settings and any type of finish . The possible creations are: stairs, floors, general coverings, levels and kitchen tops.
Travertine is an incredibly resistant and compact natural stone , widely used in construction. In particular, travertine is a chemical sedimentary rock consisting mainly of calcium carbonate minerals.
The term travertine derives from "tiburtinus" as it comes largely from an area under Tivoli. Travertine, in fact, was one of the materials most used by the Romans for the construction of buildings and public works, so much so that it later became famous with the name Roman travertine. Among the most famous monuments worldwide made with travertine rock it is impossible not to mention the Colosseum , St. Peter's Basilica or the Trevi Fountain .
Travertine is considered an extremely versatile rock also due to the variety of colors in which it is available. The age of the stone and the incorporation of oxides and other impurities (a normal phenomenon given the porosity of this rock) gives life to a series of different travertines in addition to the classic travertine with many shades starting from milky white up to walnut, as well as from pink to scarlet red .
