Polished or polished travertine stones, rough travertine stones, and antique or leather travertine stones are the result of some measures at this stage.
As the name implies, grinding and polishing the stone increases the gloss and smoothness of its surface. However, in some types of travertine stones, which are called leather travertine stones, in addition to removing this step, they also use acid to open the pores of the stone surface and using some wire brushes on the work surface to lose its luster completely.
Travertine is a kind of limestone deposited by springs. With time, the minerals build up into deposits of travertine.
