Stone family

Travertine

Travertine is a layered sedimentary stone with an open, naturally porous structure and a warm tone. Arcera can source travertine vein-cut or cross-cut, filled or unfilled, according to the surface you want.

Typical colours
Cream, beige, walnut and silver-grey.
Movement
Vein-cut reads as strong horizontal banding; cross-cut produces a softer, cloud-like figure.
Common finishes
Honed and filled, Honed unfilled, Brushed, Tumbled
Lead time
Approximately eight to 12 weeks, sourced to order

Describe the character you are after.

These are visual references to help you describe the appearance you prefer. They are not stock, and not a list of what Arcera holds.

  • Light and restrained

    Even cream field with fine, tightly spaced banding.

  • Linear

    Vein-cut, with continuous horizontal banding across the slab.

  • Warm and softly veined

    Walnut and beige tones with gentle, diffuse layering.

Considered for scale and use.

  • Floors and walls

    A long-established interior floor and wall material, often specified across large continuous areas.

  • Furniture and joinery

    The tone and banding suit solid pieces where the material reads as mass rather than surface.

  • Exterior applications

    Possible with appropriate selection and finish, subject to exposure and slip requirements.

Natural variation

Natural voids are inherent to travertine, not a defect. Their size and density vary between lots, and filled surfaces may reveal further voids after fabrication.

Natural stone is inherently variable. Colour, veining, movement, fissures, texture and surface characteristics differ between slabs and lots. Representative imagery is provided to communicate the general character of the stone only. Final material selection should be confirmed against available slabs before purchase, fabrication or installation.

Care and specification

Porous and calcareous. Sealing is recommended, and unfilled surfaces need consideration where spillage or cleaning regimes matter.

How Arcera sources travertine.

  1. 01

    Share your requirement

    Provide the stone type, application, dimensions, finish and project timing.

  2. 02

    Arcera reviews suitable material

    Arcera checks supplier availability, suitable varieties, slab sizes and sourcing options.

  3. 03

    Review current stone

    Representative samples, slab imagery or current supplier lots are presented for consideration.

  4. 04

    Confirm and order

    The selected material, quantity, finish, price, freight and expected delivery are confirmed.

Allow approximately eight to 12 weeks from confirmation of the selected stone and order. Lead times remain subject to material availability, production, shipping and customs.

Source stone for your project

Tell Arcera about the stone character, application, approximate dimensions, finish and timing you require. We will review suitable sourcing options and return with available material, indicative lead time and next steps.

Common questions
Can Arcera source travertine for my project?

Yes. Arcera sources travertine to order. Share the character, application, approximate dimensions, finish and timing you need, and Arcera will review suitable sourcing options and return with available material and an indicative lead time.

How long will travertine take to arrive?

Allow approximately eight to 12 weeks from confirmation of the selected stone and order. Lead times remain subject to material availability, production, shipping and customs.

What finishes are available in travertine?

Honed and filled, Honed unfilled, Brushed, Tumbled are commonly available. What is practical depends on the specific stone and supplier lot, so include the preferred finish in your enquiry and Arcera will confirm.

Will the stone look exactly like the imagery shown?

Natural voids are inherent to travertine, not a defect. Their size and density vary between lots, and filled surfaces may reveal further voids after fabrication.

Does Arcera fabricate and install travertine?

Fabrication and installation support may be available depending on location, material and project scope. Include the requirement in your enquiry so Arcera can confirm the appropriate pathway.
