Stone from Turkey

Silver Travertine is the only current approved profile recorded with Turkey as its origin country. Its grey linear structure, pores, cut direction and possible fills or textured finishes require current-lot review. Origin does not prove quarry, test values, exterior or freeze-thaw suitability, availability, processing, packing or commercial terms for a proposed project.

How to shortlist Stone from Turkey

The Turkey directory currently represents one cool grey travertine identity rather than the country's broader stone production. Silver Travertine can be considered for floors, stairs, paving or cladding depending on the complete review. Vein-cut and cross-cut expressions, pore treatment and finish can change the design substantially, so the brief should state the required visual direction.

Variation and evidence

Country does not establish quarry, block, banding, pore size, fill, repairs, thickness, dimensions or current test values. Brushed, honed, sandblasted or tumbled processing produces different textures and maintenance questions. Request identified current material and finish samples, and document whether pores are open or filled and what visual range is acceptable.

Project confirmation

Define interior or exterior location, wetting, freeze-thaw, drainage, traffic, slip or abrasion criteria, dimensions, joints, setting, quantity, destination and documents. Request applicable evidence for the selected lot and finish. Confirm supplier, provenance, processing, inspection, packing, schedule and spare quantity before treating the material as approved.

Written confirmation

What to include in the next brief.

  1. Approve current Silver Travertine cut, pores, fill, finish, evidence, packing, spare quantity and installation scope.
  2. Request supplier, lot, quarry or regional provenance at the level required by the project.
  3. Tie current images, samples, reports, packing and shipment documents to identifiable material.
  4. Record processing, inspection, Incoterm, destination, schedule, replacement and commercial responsibilities.

Confirm the actual lot, visual range, finish, dimensions, fabrication scope, test documents, quantity, packing, destination, timing, and commercial terms in writing.
