Travertino Navona

also known as Navona Travertine, Travertine Navona, Classic Roman Travertine

One of Italy's most celebrated travertines: a fine-grained, ivory-to-cream stone from the Lazio region prized for its warm, consistent colouring and workability. The Navona selection offers refined cross-cut or vein-cut grain, ideal for luxury facade cladding, floor slabs, and statement wall panels. Its combination of classical pedigree and technical performance makes it the benchmark for high-end travertine specification.

Origin & quarry

Travertino Navona is the cream, even-toned Roman travertine from the Tivoli beds east of Rome — the lighter, calmer cousin of the warmer Travertino Romano. Quarried continuously since antiquity.

Geology. Chemical sedimentary stone (calcium carbonate) deposited by mineral-rich hot springs; the linear porosity gives the vein-cut and cross-cut looks.

Good to know

What distinguishes Travertino Navona from standard travertine?

Navona refers to a premium selection of Roman travertine valued for finer grain, more even ivory colouring, and consistency — the preferred choice for high-end architectural facades and interiors.

Is it suitable for exterior facade cladding?

Yes, when properly specified (filled pores, appropriate anchoring, correct thickness). Travertino Navona has been used on major commercial and residential facades in both Italy and the US market.
