White Travertine Honed & Tumbled
Introduction to White Travertine
White travertine is one of the most widely used natural stones in architectural projects, valued for its light color, balanced texture, and strong technical performance. Quarried in different regions of Iran, white travertine has long been recognized as a reliable stone for both exterior and interior applications.

Thanks to its natural porosity, white travertine has a relatively low weight compared to many other stones, while still offering good strength and durability. This balance makes it suitable for façades, flooring, staircases, and decorative architectural elements. When processed as White travertine honed and tumbled, the stone gains a softer appearance and improved surface behavior.
Major Iranian sources of white travertine include quarries in Mahallat and Natanz regions. Technical performance of natural stones is commonly evaluated according to international standards such as
ASTM natural stone testing standards.
Visual Character of White travertine honed and tumbled
The visual character of White travertine honed and tumbled is defined by softness, natural balance, and architectural calm. Unlike polished surfaces that reflect light sharply, honed and tumbled surfaces spread light gently, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
White travertine typically ranges from bright white to bone white, with occasional cream or light grey veins depending on the quarry and grade.
