    Default Silver travertine again.

    Here is another silver travertine stone job...this time a wet floor shower area.

    The silver travertine again was from perfect home and garden as the the last silver travertine one i did but this batch was selected to have a lot lighter stone pieces than the first one i did.
    Pics from that job can be seen HERE.

    Wow! That's a bit strong for me, although i'd quite like it as a feature wall. Makes me a bit dizzy with it being on all walls.

    I love travertine and, silver especially, the first time I'd heard of it was in your previous thread Dave, and I happened to see some in the flesh a few days laterGonna be doing bathroom at home after Mrs Dougs little windfall, and I've told her to look at ST, my local supplier has some lovely looking stuff on display, (wether I can get the same grade, texture , shading etc remains to be seen). Seeing your pics reinforces my opinion

    LTP mattstone....but the stone is vibrant to start with in the lighter shades..

    The shading is what i like most....not many travertines are like this..

    Looks nice, why didnt you centre the wall on the middle of a tile to avoid the small cuts either side? Was there a reason ie lining up floor tiles? Just wondering?
