Travertine Valencia 8 Inch Hexagon Honed Tile
Travertine / Brown
SKU: 202700141
Imbue your architectural projects with the sun-drenched spirit of the Mediterranean using our Valencia Travertine 8 Inch Hexagon Honed Tile. This distinguished large-format tile moves beyond the monochromatic palette of standard beige travertine, offering a rich and vibrant tapestry of earthy hues including toasted walnut, warm ochre, and soft cream. The substantial eight-inch hexagonal format provides a generous canvas for these colors to meld and flow, creating a floor or wall surface that feels organically unified yet full of individual character.
The tile is finished with a honed surface, a processing technique that elevates the rustic nature of the stone to a level of modern sophistication. By grinding the face of the travertine to a smooth, flat matte, the stone becomes satin-soft to the touch. This finish tames the rugged texture typically associated with raw travertine, allowing the complex color variations and natural movement of the sediment layers to take center stage without the distraction of surface roughness. It strikes a perfect balance between the raw beauty of nature and the refined requirements of contemporary interior design.
Ideally suited for creating spaces that feel grounded and welcoming, the Valencia Hexagon Honed Tile is a versatile design element. Its warm color profile pairs exceptionally well with natural materials such as wood cabinetry, woven textiles, and terracotta accents. The honed surface is practical for everyday living, offering a comfortable underfoot feel while maintaining enough traction for flooring in high-traffic areas like kitchens, entryways, or living rooms. Whether used to pave a rustic farmhouse floor or to clad a feature wall in a cozy modern villa, this tile delivers an enduring aesthetic of comfort and warmth.

Read Before You Specify
- Honed, polished, tumbled or brushed — which finish should you specify?Specify honed for interior floors, tumbled or brushed where the surface gets wet, and polished only where there is no slip requirement. All four start from the same slab; the finish changes grip, how visibly it wears, and how often it needs sealing — not the stone itself.
- Marble or travertine — which should you specify?Specify marble where a polished, low-absorption surface matters, and travertine where texture, grip and warmth matter more. Marble absorbs about 0.15% of its weight in water against travertine at roughly 2.6%, but the two overlap in compressive strength — porosity and strength are separate properties.
