It&#8217;s called travertine.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Travertine is a special kind of rock, different than marble. But it still packs the powerful luster of marble into one less expensive punch. A sedimentary rock, marble is metamorphic, it is often referred to as &#8220;travertine marble&#8221; because it contains many of the same properties as marble. Due to its method of formation and extraction from the earth, it is typically less expensive, making it a more affordable alternative to real marble.<\/p>\n<p>All marble is durable. It can be used and will last for centuries. Take a look at the Roman Coliseum, for instance. It&#8217;s still standing. It&#8217;s also made from travertine.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of laying marble on your dance floor, consider travertine. You&#8217;ll save a ton of money on your ballroom and still entertain great guests for a long time. If you are tiling a foyer or entrance to a building, commercial or residential, and are concerned about making a great first impression, travertine can make that happen for you.<\/p>\n<p>Travertine allows you to make an impression with materials as well as design. Take a look at the Eco Depot showroom and see what travertine can do for you.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re one of those people who love the look of marble but believe it&#8217;s out of your range of possibilities because it is so expensive, there is a less expensive alternative that still looks just as nice.
