Iranian travertine, with its unique charm and genuine excellent performance, is widely used in architectural decoration. Whether it is the walls and floors inside the house or outside, it is particularly suitable for use and can add that special classic flavor to the building. Not only that, but it can also be used as a garden landscape such as bonsai and rockeries, or transformed into small home decorations like furniture and candlesticks, all of which are quite good. It can bring the beauty of nature to every corner of life.

Points to note for maintenance:

The surface of Iranian travertine is perforated and prone to dust and dirt accumulation, so it needs to be wiped frequently. It’s best to use a special stone cleaner. Don’t use those with bleach or strong acid, as they are prone to damage. Also, be careful not to let hard objects scratch the surface of the stone, so as to maintain its original luster and texture all the time.

Is travertine afraid of water?
It’s fine to splash some water on it usually, but there are small holes on its surface. If it is soaked in water for a long time, it won’t work as it is easy for water to seep in and leave marks. Especially when laid in the bathroom, the water should be dried quickly after taking a bath. Don’t let the accumulated water keep covering you.

Is it wear-resistant when laid on the ground? Will there be scratches if there are children running around at home?
It’s not particularly wear-resistant, after all, it’s natural stone. It’s fine to wear soft-soled shoes on a regular basis. But if you’re dragging furniture or your kids are riding a scooter, it’s best to put something under it. Otherwise, it’s easy to get scratches and it will be hard to fix them later.

Why do some travertine stones look different in color?
Natural stones are like this: different veins result in variations in color depth and texture. If you want to make the layout neat and tidy, it’s best to ask the merchant to pick and choose when purchasing. Try to select a batch with similar colors and avoid having too many of them.

How much more expensive is it than ordinary tiles? Is it worth it?
It is indeed much more expensive. After all, it is natural stone and has a unique pore texture, which looks very high-quality. If you want to act sophisticated and pursue a natural style, this money is well spent. If you are looking for something cheap and durable, it is more practical to choose tiles.
