Hazelnut travertine
Hazelnut travertine is a natural sedimentary stone with warm beige-golden tones, formed by calcium carbonate deposits. Its neutral coloring and subtle veining make it versatile for various design styles.
Key Features:
- Color: Golden beige to light brown with faint veining
- Texture: Porous with characteristic small holes
- Hardness: Moderate (3-4 Mohs scale)
- Finishes: Polished, honed, brushed or tumbled
- Durability: Heat-resistant, needs periodic sealing
Recommended Uses:
- Interior/exterior wall cladding
- Residential flooring
- Kitchen and bathroom countertops
- Decorative elements (fountains, tables)
- Commercial projects (hotels, restaurants)
Advantages:
- Neutral colors that blend easily
- Natural elegance without being showy
- Perfect for classic and contemporary styles

Red Travertine
Red travertine is a natural sedimentary stone with reddish, pink, or orange tones, formed by the accumulation of calcium carbonate in mineral-rich waters. Its color comes from iron oxides, and its texture features natural pores and veins, typical of this stone.
Key Features:
- Color: Deep red with warm tonal variations.
- Texture: Porous, with natural veins and small cavities.
- Hardness: Moderate (3-4 on Mohs scale), best for indoor use.
- Finishes: Polished (glossy), honed, brushed, or tumbled.
- Durability: Heat-resistant but requires sealing due to porosity.
Common Uses:
- Wall cladding (feature walls, fireplaces, decorative accents).
- Flooring (low to medium traffic areas).
- Countertops and tables (with proper maintenance).
- Bathrooms (sinks, showers, vanities).
- Commercial projects (hotels, restaurants, luxury stores).
Advantages:
- Unique aesthetic with warm colors and natural veining.
- Versatile for modern, rustic, or classic designs.
- Heat-resistant, suitable for kitchens and fireplaces.
