While most travertine is beige, this rare variety boasts deep hues of rusty red, burnt orange, and golden sunset tones. The &#8220;Tumbled&#8221; finish is achieved by rotating the stones in a drum with water and abrasives, which rounds off the sharp corners and gives the face a weathered, antique appearance. It is the preferred choice for designers looking to create a Tuscan, Mediterranean, or Rustic Farmhouse aesthetic.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"873\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-33958\" src=\"https:\/\/www.caronstone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Red-Travertine-Tumbled-Pavers.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.caronstone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Red-Travertine-Tumbled-Pavers.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.caronstone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Red-Travertine-Tumbled-Pavers-300x262.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.caronstone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Red-Travertine-Tumbled-Pavers-768x670.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.caronstone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Red-Travertine-Tumbled-Pavers-14x12.jpg 14w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Steenkenmerken<\/h2>\n<p>Red Travertine is a sedimentary limestone known for its character:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Texture:<\/strong> The surface is naturally pitted (holes).

Is tumbled travertine slippery?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">No, it is one of the least slippery stone finishes available. The texture and holes provide excellent grip, even when wet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">2. Does it get hot in the sun?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Travertine is famous for staying cool. It transfers heat into the ground rather than holding it on the surface, making it perfect for pool decks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">3. Should I fill the holes?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Outdoors: No, leave them open for traction and drainage. Indoors: Yes, filling them with grout makes cleaning easier.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">4. Can I use it for a driveway?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Yes, but you must use the 3cm (1.25 inch) thick pavers. The standard 1.2cm tiles are not strong enough for vehicle traffic.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">5. Does the color fade?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Natural stone does not fade like dyed concrete. However, applying a color-enhancing sealer every few years keeps the red vibrant.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">6. How do I clean it?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">A garden hose or pressure washer (on a low setting) works well outdoors. Use pH-neutral cleaners indoors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">7. What is the French Pattern?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">It is a layout using 4 sizes (e.g., 20&#215;20, 20&#215;40, 40&#215;40, 40x60cm) to break up grid lines. We sell pre-bundled sets for this pattern.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">8. Is it freeze\/thaw resistant?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Travertine is generally durable, but in very harsh freeze climates, proper drainage and installation are critical to prevent cracking.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">9. What is the difference between Tile and Paver?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Tile is usually 1.2cm thick for mortar setting. Paver is 3cm thick and can be laid on sand or gravel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">10. Can I use this on walls?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Yes, tumbled red travertine makes a beautiful, rustic backsplash or feature wall cladding.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">11. Does it scratch?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Travertine can scratch, but the tumbled finish hides scratches and wear very well, adding to the &#8220;antique&#8221; look.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">12. Do you have matching pool coping?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Yes, we manufacture bullnose (rounded edge) coping in Red Travertine to match the pavers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">13. Is it safe to ship?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Yes, we pack tightly in wooden crates. Tumbled stone is robust, and minor chips during shipping often blend into the rustic finish.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">14. What is the MOQ?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Our MOQ is typically 1 crate (approx. 30-40 sqm).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 16px;\">15. Can I get a sample?<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0;\">Yes, we can send a small box of samples so you can see the color range and texture.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Waarom voor ons kiezen<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Caron Steen<\/strong> sources directly from the quarries in Turkey and Iran.
