One of the most beautifully natural looking stones in the world, the travertine is produced over a long time by nature and formed from a long contact with natural subterranean hot springs. The stones take on a uniquely striking warm and inviting texture due to the hot springs temperature of up to 100° Celsius. Turkish Travertine has one of the best reputations due to the many hot springs found in Western Turkey than run up to these temperatures. There are other commercial centres of travertine found in Spain, Iran, and Italy, but Turkey has been first to develop this niche market and extracts some wonderful varieties.
