Travertine can be referred as a sedimentary rock evolved from
limestone. It gets collected to the surface by natural springs or
rivers. When pressure is exerted to limestone, travertine is
formed. Almost, formation of marble and travertine are same but the

natural stone appears with lots of advantages. This stone is very
common and is available with cheap price.

should be done properly. Due to softer quality, processing of
