TRAVERTINO
(100% lime-based plaster)

"Over 2000 years ago, the Romans stone of choice was Travertine. This white sedimentary limestone was durable, typically had small streaks and crevices, which added to the interest of this stone."

"A favorite of ancient builders and sculptures, because it could be smoothed and polished. Many of the famous sculptures and architectural wonders were made from this stone."

"Today, we use a plaster known as Travertino to create this classical decorative finish, traditional to Tuscany and Central Italy."

"True to Travertine stone qualities, Travertino has a natural stone appearance, with pitted marks revealing the marble and textured undercoat. Travertino has the look and feel of real Travertine stone."

"Popular with architects, this finish is restoration approved, and used on many historic buildings to recreate this timeless look."

"Whether you are using it on columns, a fireplace, or creating a brick accent wall, Travertino is an amazing Italian Plaster Finish."
