Questions about Striato travertine
Why does Striato travertine have holes?
They are the stone's pores: gas bubbles trapped when the limestone formed in hot springs. Aligned, they show on the slab in the photo. You can order it with those pores filled for a smooth surface, or leave them open for a rustic look.
How do I tell Striato travertine from classic travertine?
By the direction of the pattern. In its photo, Striato carries fine horizontal stripes, with a wider gray band here and there. In its own, classic travertine is beige with dark holes aligned vertically and a symmetrical, mirrored pattern.
Does Striato travertine work for a kitchen countertop?
Not if you want a surface without marks. Lemon, vinegar or wine will mark a countertop, just like marble.
What care does Striato travertine need?
Clean it with neutral soap and water; keep acidic cleaners out, because they mark it. Apply sealer and check the filled pores wherever there is water.
Is the Striato travertine photo of a real slab?
Yes, it is a real Striato slab, with a close-up of its stripes and pores. Every slab is different. Before you buy we send photos of the slabs available for your order.
