"Ocean Travertine" seems to be a local name.

11 years ago
We are renovating an east coast contemporary and looking to use travertine on the floor and extend to the outdoors. This palette is exactly what we are working with. The travertine is our stumbling block. Travertine names/colors are very hard to source. Where is the Beach travertine available regardless of the geographic location? What other name might it go by? We would appreciate any lead you can offer.

    Thanks for the question! Shopping for travertine can be very confusing, I agree. The stone pictured is very similar to "noce" which is a common name. In this case, we were looking for a stone that had a strong horizontal grain. I would start by looking for "noce" and see if you can find some that will work with your palette. Check out several suppliers, the beauty of natural stone is that no two are alike. Good luck with your search!
