    It is Ancient Pewter Durango from Mexico -- a variation of Classic Durango / Travertine. It's the same as the Classic Durango except it has a pewter colored vein running thru it here and there. We chose a pattern of three different sizes: 8 x 8, 8 x 16 and 16 x 16. I have seen similar products on-line out of Arizona but we purchased ours through a local tile and stone wholesale shop in our hometown. It is rustic yet elegant and the floor is one of the best decisions we made. I highly recommend setting the tiles as close together as possible and going with epoxy grout which doubles as a sealer and will protect the grout from staining and will be much lower maintenaince in the long run. You pay more up front for the grout and labor to install as it is more difficult and time consuming for the tile installer but it is best! Regular grout will get dirty and won't protect the stone from stains.

    I have not been able to find that same stone with the pewter veining since we completed the project.
