General description
Bright tones, fine natural veining, whiteness of pure travertine: Alabastrino is the embodiment of elegance. Amber and beige streaks shine through the pale background, defining it. Every streak on the surface is a proof of the quality and the glorious past of this stone.
White cream tonalities embroidered with light streaks are the expression of refinement and graceful luxury. With a gentle touch, Alabastrino travertine encompasses the world’s pleasures through a delicate reference of movements in its unique natural design.
Travertine is a natural stone with extremely versatile features, perfect for both residential and commercial use. It is a sophisticated natural choice ideal for interior and exterior designs. Alabastrino D is easy to cut and shape, and is the perfect raw material for furnishing and works of art: countertops and tables made of natural stone donate great harmony to any setting.
A building dressed up with its light shades will stand out from the uniform surrounding environment. Results are breathtaking. Indoor applications such as cladding and flooring will benefit from the gentleness and brilliance of Alabastrino D, and evoke a sense of balance.
Each block of travertine is one of a kind displaying its own unique veining pattern. In other words, waves and shades may be more or less pronounced. What does not change is the elegant visual effect donated by this natural stone to the room.
Poggi Bros quarries extract their precious natural stones from the same quarry that supplied roman travertine to ancient romans and to some of the great artists from the Renaissance. What we offer is not only a luxurious final product, but also a direct connection with history.
