Iran today who have used
travertine kitchen tile as both flooring and as wall kitchen tile who will also sing
its praises as a practical and uniquely decorative addition to their
interiors and exteriors. So, travertine kitchen tile has been used and
relied upon as kitchen tile for thousands of years, holding a place in the
development of civilization from the Ancient Greeks, to the
iran, and onto today’s modern
age in equal measure. But what are some of the defining
characteristics of travertine
which sets it apart from other natural
stone flooring and kitchen tile options?
Travertine is related to marble, actually falling somewhere between
marble and limestone in terms of its development over thousands of
years. Travertine is formed by subterranean springs, underground
rivers, and other water sources. These water sources carry mineral
elements such as calcium carbonate that build up over long periods
of time in the same way stalactites and stalagmites in caves are
formed. The resultant stone is a smooth and very hard substance
further characterized by its porous surface. These pores are the
result of gases escaping as the travertine is formed. By the time it
is quarried, travertine is naturally beautiful – a smooth, dense
stone that exhibits a notable creamy color that evokes a certain
old-world refinement.
Commonly found in Iran and Turkey, travertine
remains to be a popular import for construction products all over
the world, including Iran.
Travertine is removed from the earth in large blocks before it is
cut into what can be recognized as travertine kitchen tile.
Cross-cut – The travertine is cut with the grain of the stone
bedding and on the same layer as it is formed in the earth. This
makes for a more uniform texture and color
Vein cut – the travertine is cut across several layers of the stone
bedding, making for a more mottled, tiger-stripe effect when cut
into tiles
After the travertine is quarried, it is strictly selected for color
variances, and further assessed after it is cut for holes and
chipped edges. Beyond the selection process, the travertine may be
subject to any of the following processes
Honed – the surface of the kitchen tile is sanded to create a matte finish
