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.

Polaris Dolomite is a beautifully serene natural stone with a cool, refined grey palette and subtle cloudy veining that drifts across each slab with a gentle, understated movement that adds quiet depth and visual interest without ever disrupting the stone’s overall sense of calm and order. The soft, atmospheric quality of the cloudy veining gives the surface a painterly character that feels naturally expressive yet thoroughly composed, lending the stone a timeless aesthetic that sits comfortably within a remarkably wide range of interior styles and design schemes. Where bolder stones demand attention, Polaris invites a slower, more considered appreciation, revealing its understated beauty gradually and rewarding those who take the time to look closely. Its cool grey tones integrate seamlessly with both minimalist contemporary spaces seeking clean, refined simplicity and more layered, eclectic interiors where the stone’s neutral sophistication provides a grounding, harmonious foundation.

Its exceptional hardness and natural durability make it as practical as it is visually impressive, performing beautifully on kitchen benchtops and high-use surfaces without sacrificing any of its understated elegance.

Copacabana Granite is a visually captivating natural stone with a clean ivory background dramatically swept by thick, swirling black veins that move across each slab with a bold, energetic rhythm that immediately draws the eye. The generous scale of the veining creates a sense of dynamic movement and visual drama that feels genuinely alive, giving the stone a busy yet naturally beautiful character that is difficult to replicate in any other material. Despite its striking pattern intensity, the contrast between the warm ivory base and the deep black swirls maintains a natural allure and balance that prevents the stone from feeling overwhelming. A confident and distinctive choice for kitchen benchtops, feature walls, bathroom vanities and statement flooring, Copacabana Granite brings an undeniable sense of drama and dynamism to interiors that embrace bold, captivating natural beauty without reservation.
Calacatta Vagli is an Italian marble with a warm, creamy white base and grey and gold veining that breaks into a brecciated, fragmented pattern rather than running in straight lines. Quarried in the Vagli area of Tuscany, part of the historic Carrara marble region, each slab carries its own movement, so no two are alike.
The scattered gold and grey veins give the surface real depth, catching the light through the day and reading as a soft, warm block of colour across a room. As a marble it is porous and softer than quartzite or granite, so it can etch from acidic spills and benefits from sealing every one to two years, with spills wiped up promptly.
Best for: kitchen islands, benchtops, feature walls, shower niches and fireplace surrounds.
It pairs well with timber cabinetry, brass fixtures and warm, natural materials. See the current Calacatta Vagli slabs in person at our Greenacre or Beresfield showroom, since photos do not capture the depth of the veining.
