Travertine is one of the world's oldest building materials and certainly has stood the test of time - just look at the Coliseum in Rome. In today's construction, travertine is used for flooring, cladding on buildings, wall coverings, counter tops, fireplaces, pavement and many other places.

Travertine is a calcium carbonated rock that belongs to the limestone family. It is formed by minerals that dissolved into the ground water and then being deposited on the earth by riverbeds, springs and geysers. The hot water passes through the limestone beds and takes the calcium to the surface. When the water evaporates the calcium crystals are left on the surface. The characteristic holes in travertine are the result of gas bubbles trapped as the stone was being formed.
