About Silver Pewter Blend Travertine

Travertine forms where calcium-carbonate-rich water deposits stone quickly, most often at hot springs or in limestone caves. That leaves it naturally porous, so tiles are sold with the surface holes left open (unfilled) or filled for a smoother face. SoCal's Filled & Honed option in this line is the filled choice. See Filled vs Unfilled Travertine and the Travertine family page.
