An Iranian quarry produces travertine that is ivory bone white. Due to its rarity, Persian Ivory Travertine, which is often chosen from blocks of the most incredible quality from light travertine quarries, is not frequently encountered. The Iran's Ivory Travertine, which gets its name from the same ivory color scheme, has a homogeneous structure that makes it simple to apply over a vast area. Building stone, sinks, monuments, pool coping, sills, ornamental stone, interior, exterior, wall, floor, pavement, and other design projects benefit significantly from the use of this stone. It is also known as Persian Ivory Travertine and Iran White Travertine. The processing of ivory travertine includes honed, aged, polished, sawn, sanded, rock-faced, sand-blasted, bush-hammered, tumbled, and more. Due to the essential characteristics of ivory travertine, the model of cutting with visible water veins, also known as Ivory vein-cut Travertine, is frequently requested.
One type of ivory-colored, bone-white travertine is called ivory travertine and is mined in Iran. This stone is particularly suitable for construction projects such as walls and floors, pavement, sinks, monuments, pool coping, sills, and decorative stone. Iran White Travertine and Persian Ivory Travertine are other names for it. Ivory Travertine may be produced in various ways: honed, aged, polished, sawn, sanded, rock-faced, sandblasted, bush-hammered, tumbled, and more.
These exquisite honed and filled light travertine tiles are modern, stylish, and ideally on style. They won't let you down. To display uniformity, every tile is carefully chosen and created. Current patterns will go well with the background color and honed-filled finish since they both give a very smooth surface.
Famous ivory travertine stones such as Abbas Abad travertine, Haji Abad travertine, and Ateshkoh travertine usually have very good technical quality. The high purity of the calcite mineral in these stones and the dense texture are two important factors in improving the technical quality of these stones.
Iranian ivory travertine stone is one of the suitable and luxurious options for the exterior of the building. This stone has good durability against most destructive environmental factors, especially freezing. Its bright color also creates a stunning appearance on the facade. Ivory travertine stone is widely used in luxury facades such as the Roman facade.

First of all, which type of travertine is suitable for your building should be checked. According to the architectural style and building application, it is necessary to choose the color of the stone and the facade's design. In classical facades, ivory travertine is usually used, and in European architectural styles, it is the best choice of light colors, which can be used in different types. Most of the buildings use the Renaissance style and travertine to decorate the facade of their building. Ivory travertine makes the building look classy, prevents the penetration of moisture and pollution into the interior parts of the building, and, finally, it will be very effective on the price of the building.
The brighter the background color of this stone, the higher its price. The more undulating and regular the travertine, the higher the price of this stone.
The higher the thickness of this stone, the higher its price will be. Stones with a full thickness of 3 cm or stepping stones have the highest price. After that, stones with a thickness of 2 cm are complete, and finally, stones with a thickness of less than 2 cm are around 1.6 to 1.8 cm.
The next item is the size of the stone, which is influential in determining the price of the stone. The larger the dimensions of the ordered stone, the higher the cost of the travertine per square meter. For example, slab stone, which has the largest size among all stone dimensions, has the highest price. Exported stones usually have large dimensions and therefore have a higher price.
The quality of stone processing is another influential factor that can affect the final price of the stone. The higher the quality of the sub and resin used in the travertine stone, the more expensive this stone will be.
Iranian Ivory Travertine is a sedimentary stone that is formed around hot springs and sometimes rivers and streams. In general, travertine is considered a non-marine carbonate and sedimentary rock that forms in dry intercontinental environments. The major mines of this type of travertine are located in the cities of Abbas Abad, Ab Garm, Atashkooh, and Abyaneh.
Iran is a rich region in terms of minerals. There are obvious differences in the distribution of stone mines between the provinces of the country. According to statistics, the provinces of Isfahan, Khorasan, Fars, Kurdistan and East Azarbaijan have a total of 69% of these mines.
Travertine is a type of stone made from sedimentary and decorative stones. These stones are left over from the deposits of hot springs. The holes in this rock are the source of sedimentation due to the space occupied by the gases in hot water—the fewer elements soluble in the water of these sources, the brighter the stone's color.
The area's heat and altitude also affect the quality of the travertine. There are large travertine mines in Iran, among which we can mention the Agh Dareh travertine mine, Zanjan, Takab, Ardabil, and Markazi.
Due to its high porosity, travertine is suitable for the interior and exterior facades of the building. This porosity allows the cement slurry to penetrate these spaces and act as a natural scope.
Travertines can be used even in icy and rainy areas on the facade of the building without worrying about leaving the stone.
One of the important and suitable materials is ivory travertine. The most important application of this type of stone is to use as a white facade of a building, especially its exterior. Because ivory travertine stones have excellent resistance and strength, their compatibility with different weather conditions is another reason for using white stones. Travertine at high altitudes have a good ability to absorb mortar. Its last practical feature is coordinating with other colors and being compatible with them. The second most important application is the use in the building's interior facade and interior decoration. Its use in interior decoration is rare in Iran, but this stone is one of the best options for decorating interior walls, fireplaces, and staircases.
