NEWS ARTICLE ARCHIVESTravertine stone from S & N Brothers![]() Travertine stone is intriguing and delicate to look at. It breathes spaciousness. It's relaxed and soothing. The feeling is peaceful, tranquil, and serene. It's a simple beauty with a casual formalness. The soft earthy hues of this natural stone truly keep it in tune with an original lifestyle. Travertine colours are in warm earthy tones. From the softest ivories to the palest creams. Rich shades of golden honey and silvery greens to deep mocha browns. Travertine never appears as one solid colour. The colour tones vary and veins or bands of contrasting colour run throughout the stone. No two stones or tiles are alike. The surface finishes for travertine stone vary. A honed finish is the most popular type of finish. It's not a shiny and reflective finish, more of a matte or sheen finish. Antique finish is smooth yet rough as the surface has been brushed to create a unique textured look. The stone after quarrying can be cut into two different vein directions, Cross cut (cloudy pattern) or Vein cut (defined directional veining). It also comes unfilled or filled with a coloured grout. Creating a unique look with travertine is simple. Mix and match with other natural stones for a more eloquent feel or use it alone for pure simplicity. This natural stone will give you years of beauty to enjoy. SNB STONE stock a huge variety of Travertine tiles and slabs.
