Marble tile is a very stylish, highly resilient, and fashionable, natural stone. It is the impressive result of limestone crystallization that occurs within the Earth after tremendously high temperatures and pressures apply to limestone. Then, the stone recrystallizes as part of a second-phase metamorphosis and becomes harder and denser. That is what allows it to have its beautiful polish finish during fabrication. Also, the fact that you can’t get two tiles alike makes marble so desirable by people that want something unique and dashing in their property.
Like any other natural stone, marble is slightly more susceptible to staining, compared to other tile options. For that reason, substances such as alcoholic beverages, tomato products, vinegar, coffee, tea, salad dressings, and butter should be avoided when using it indoors so that you can enjoy its lovely patterns, colors, and timeless classic look for long. However, you have to be very careful when buying marble as you need first-class materials to achieve a stunning result. This is where we step in, as the number one marble suppliers in London with an established reputation, and give your dream for a magnificent marble flooring flesh and bones.
Each and every block is inspected at our quarries before selection for processing in our factories. This forms the first step in our quality control program and is part of our continuous selection process.
Travertine tile belongs to the same family as Limestone and is a sedimentary rock that composes of calcite. It is an extremely durable natural stone that has been widely used in construction from the ancient times (see the Colosseum). It is a porous material that has to be sealed before grouting because if left untreated, it will stain from liquids and acids found in some foods (i.e. alcohol, vinegar, and citrus fruits). However, if you seal it properly, it will definitely add value to your home. See for example the Travertine Chiaro Medium Honed And Filled tile, which is one the most favourable kitchen tiles that light up a room and blend amazingly well when used with wood finishes.
Plus, Travertine tiles feel soft underfoot, and you can find a broad array of rich, radiant hues that will add warmth and ambiance to almost any room in the house. Now, if you love earthy color tones, you will come across everything ranging from brown to pale cream.
Travertine tiles are also often used in bathrooms, wet rooms and around swimming pools.
Travertine tiles are also great for bathrooms as travertine bathroom tiles are water-resistant, which means that any splashes and spills from the bath, shower, and sink won’t damage your gorgeous travertine tiles. That aside, this gorgeous travertine stone will make your bathroom exude a sense of old charm, making relaxing in your bath surrounded by candles a divine experience.
Limestone is a material with a fascinating background. It was originally deposited under water as soft sediments laid down as beds through complex processes. Over the course of millions of years, the sediments got compressed and then cemented.
Limestone’s porosity is about 5%, which makes it an excellent material to use for bathroom vanities and flooring. Bathroom tiles, such as the Perlino Brushed, are superb choices that offer scratch resistance and waterproof properties, among others. Without a doubt, Limestone shares a monumental quality and make a remarkable decorative statement in different settings, too. No wonder limestone flooring is gaining more and more popularity these days. It is not easy to find floor tiles or wall tiles with the durability provided by limestone.
Also limestone is incredibly good value for money, and is a firm favourite for use outdoors in patios and porches, as limestone is great for open-air use, but can also be used in kitchens and bathrooms very very successfully resulting in a beautiful natural and unique look.
Limestone is highly resilient, with lovely patterns and colours. It’s perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, hallways, and living areas, especially if you’re fond of its tendency to look like wood. Limestone tiles are similar to travertine tiles, but is more suited for use as flooring because it has been significantly hardened through tectonic action and time. Limestone’s best uses are for vanities, floors, shower walls, fireplace surrounds, and entry walls.
There is definitely something extremely aesthetically satisfying about an intricate pattern that has been formed by small tiles.

Mosaic tiles help give a pleasing visual pop to any room, especially when used as border details or in tight spaces and contrast with larger tiles. If you want to add a splash of color or highlight larger sections, there is no better way than using mosaic tiles. They are versatile, and look great on countertops, as backsplashes, in entryways, and showers.

Spring/Summer 2016 in London and UK interior design has definitely shown a big push toward natural materials and colours throughout the home. So not only does stone exhibit classical and timeless elegance and sophistication, it is also now very ‘in’. In fact, in settings like bathrooms and kitchens, limestone and travertine is the material of choice when it come to tile and mosaics, with the most popular stone colour being whites, creams and greys. In fact, grey marble and grey stone in general is very much in fashion right now, as it is being used as a neutral replacement for beige stone.
For example, Stratus Grey or Pietra Grey are both nice choices if you prefer the softness marble with a darker tone. They also pair well with Sophia Marble and Spring Cream if you are a homeowner that likes mixing greys and whites together.
Another popular flooring colour choice at the moment is ‘Greige’, which is a mix of beige and grey and you can capture it in your bathroom or kitchen by installing Travertine Giallo or silver travertine tiles in either polished or honed finish. With silver travertine, expect to have warm undertones to the silver with a remarkable blend of coolness and warmth that blends nicely with any accent or wall color, while Travertine Giallo makes perfect combinations with paler colours and brighten up a dull area, infusing elegance and bringing character to the space.
