Cristallo Silver Travertine slabs with a water jet “hydro” finish combine the elegant, natural beauty of travertine with a sleek, modern surface treatment.
Cristallo Silver Travertine with a water jet finish offers a balance between the raw, earthy appeal of natural stone and the clean, modern lines of contemporary design, making it a favored choice for those looking to blend traditional materials with innovative finishes.
Appearance: The slabs feature a base color of silver with subtle grey and ivory veining, providing a luxurious and sophisticated look. The water jet finish gives the surface a smooth, matte appearance, enhancing the stone’s natural texture while maintaining its characteristic small holes and natural pits typical of travertine.
Finish: The water jet process involves cutting the stone with high-pressure water, which results in a flat, even surface without the need for polishing or honing. This finish maintains the stone’s natural look with a slightly textured feel, offering both aesthetic appeal and functional grip, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications where slip resistance might be a concern.
Applications: These slabs are versatile for use in countertops, walls, floors, and fireplace surrounds. The water jet finish provides a contemporary edge to classic travertine, suitable for modern, minimalist, or transitional designs.
Maintenance: While the water jet finish reduces the need for frequent polishing, these slabs still require sealing to protect against staining. Routine cleaning with pH-neutral cleaners will help preserve the stone’s appearance.
