TRAVERTINE is a chalky, limestone-like rock. It is found in the earth's crust, and its unique look and qualities are produced from hot springs of water which are forced up and through it by geologic pressures. This water washes out any weaker materials, leaving the bubbly, miniature Swiss cheese look behind. Sometimes silica will collect and grow in the holes, which creates a crystal formation. Travertine works very well for backsplashes and bathroom countertops, as well as tub decks or shower interiors.
