Roman Striato Travertine
Roman Striato Travertine is a premier Italian travertine quarried from the outer regions of Rome, distinguished by its pronounced horizontal striations that give the stone its name, striato meaning striped in Italian. A warm, earthy background provides the canvas for rhythmic, grey horizontal veining that flows across each slab with a stronger, more defined linear movement than subtler travertine varieties, creating a visual rhythm that is particularly breathtaking across expansive feature walls and flooring where the patterning can flow completely uninterrupted. Carrying the same ancient Italian heritage as the stone used in the Colosseum and countless Roman architectural masterpieces, Roman Striato brings an authentic historical grandeur to contemporary Australian interiors with effortless elegance. Perfectly suited to feature walls, flooring, wall cladding and bathroom applications, it pairs beautifully with warm timber, brass fixtures and Mediterranean-inspired elements. As with all travertine, regular sealing every one to two years will protect its naturally porous surface and keep it looking its best.

No two slabs are alike, each carrying its own unique interpretation of these dancing tones. Beyond its remarkable visual appeal, Aurora is a true quartzite, offering exceptional durability and density that makes it equally well suited to kitchen benchtops, outdoor feature walls and everything in between. Available in honed and leathered finishes, it pairs beautifully with natural timber, brushed brass and bronze fixtures and organic textures that complement its earth meets sky aesthetic, making it one of the most versatile and visually captivating stones in the collection.

Perfectly suited to luxury residential and commercial projects where the stone is intended to be the undisputed centrepiece of the room, it pairs beautifully with brushed gold fixtures, crisp white joinery and rich dark cabinetry.
