By grinding one side of the unfinished Persian travertine, a stone may be made to have a smooth texture and finish. The finish might be matte, satin, or highly glossy; it can also be dull matte. Honed and filled Iranian travertine is one of the most common forms of this popular stone in the global market of Persian Travertine. Iran's Honed travertine is one of the most prevalent varieties of this well-liked stone. It may be applied to floors, walls, bathrooms, showers, kitchens, pool areas, indoors, and outdoors.
The surface of the Iranian travertine is polished by grinding and rubbing it with an abrasive material. In natural travertine, the holes are often grouted before honing starts. Once all the pores have been filled with cement, tiles are machined to a smooth shine. Some smaller Persian travertine tiles are hand-honed, whereas machines are usually used for matting the larger tiles.
