Description
Red Travertine Marble is one of the most vibrant and dramatic natural stones available in the travertine family. Known for its rich, fiery hues and striking visual depth, Red Travertine brings a sense of bold luxury and timeless beauty to any architectural or interior design project. Quarried primarily from the mountains of Iran and Turkey, this stone is a geological masterpiece, combining the raw power of natural elements with refined elegance.
Its deep rust-red base, layered with bands of white, gold, cream, and brown, makes it a distinctive choice for anyone looking to make a bold statement — whether in flooring, wall cladding, or outdoor applications.
Geological Formation and Origin
Red Travertine is a type of sedimentary limestone, formed from the precipitation of calcium carbonate in mineral-rich hot springs. Its reddish coloration is due to the presence of iron oxides and other natural minerals during its formation. Over thousands of years, pressure and chemical processes solidify the stone, leaving behind its signature fibrous texture and bold coloration.
Key sourcing regions include:
- Azerbaijan Province in Iran
- Denizli and Sivas regions in Turkey
Each quarry imparts slightly different tones, from brick red to copper, making it crucial to source matched lots for uniformity in large-scale projects.
Color and Appearance
Red Travertine is celebrated for its fiery and earthy color palette:
- Dominant tones: Deep red, rust, terracotta, burnt orange
- Secondary tones: Creamy beige, soft gold, white streaks or bands
- Texture: Naturally porous, with linear banding or cloudy patterns depending on the cutting direction
There are two primary cuts:
- Vein Cut – Highlights parallel bands and layered structure, often used for modern applications
- Cross Cut – Produces more random, cloudy, or circular patterns; ideal for organic or rustic designs
Each slab is unique — showcasing nature’s artistry in every inch.
Available Finishes
Red Travertine can be customized through various finishing techniques to suit different applications:
- Polished: High gloss; enhances the red tones and veining dramatically
- Honed: Smooth, matte surface for a modern, understated look
- Brushed: Slightly textured, great for wall features and exterior facades
- Tumbled: Aged, natural look with softened edges
- Filled and Unfilled: Voids can be filled with matching resins for a sleek look or left natural for added texture
