Travertine Look-alike

Posted by jojogirl11 (My Page) on

I just wanted to share about a tile I found recently. I love the look of travertine, but have had some bad experiences with what I think was Mexican travertine in our home. So, I've been looking for alternatives that will be easy to keep.

I went into our realtor's office a few weeks ago, and noticed how beautiful the "travertine" floors were. Well, I couldn't resist getting a closer look, so I went into the bathroom and inspected the floor up close. To my surprise, it was not travertine! I couldn't believe it - it looked SOOO real. And I live with travertine everyday, so I shouldn't have been fooled. It was beautiful. The kind people at the realty office gave me one of the tiles, and with a little research, I found it. I thought I'd share it with anyone who might be interested here:

This sounds exactly what I am looking for and I have been to a Mosaic tile showroom (you aren't associated, are you? 8-)

thanks!!!

Kitchen floor
Porcelain - travertine look
Shade variation v2-v4

High durability (PEI 4+)
Mutiple sizes to support hopscotch or Versallies tile patterns
Ideally rectified to support small grout lines

No, not an associate. I'm in Texas. I'm wondering if that store ships to TX - do you know how much they are asking per 17" tile at your store?
