Navona Travertine Tiles by Flaviker
Popular since Roman times, travertine was one of the most widely used kinds of marble in ancient buildings and has continued to influence the work of artists and architects through to the modern and contemporary era. The material can easily be recognised from its distinctive surface holes, which need to be filled with cement or resin subsequent to installation. The three-dimensional graphic effect enables Flaviker to reproduce the rough look of unfilled travertine, creating a unique and striking finished result that combines the aesthetics of the original material with the versatility and practicality of ceramics.
The appearance of travertine slabs is also determined by the direction in which the quarried blocks are cut. The Navona collection stands out not only for its astonishingly realistic look but also for the fact that each colour is available in the two graphic versions, vein and cross.
Vein cutting is the oldest and most widely used technique for cutting travertine. It highlights the layers of calcareous material deposited over the geological eras and produces slabs with clearly visible and contrasting striations.
Slabs obtained by cross-cutting travertine blocks ( i.e. cutting in the opposite direction to vein-cut slabs) are characterised by light and dark clouded areas that are reminiscent of other kinds of materials.

About the
Seller
Brymac Tiles is a family-owned business established in Christchurch in 1976, yes that’s right, Brymac have been operating in the Christchurch tile market for 40 years!
Brymac was primarily a tile installation service; many people will remember them in their store behind Briscoes in Salisbury Street. In the 1990s the Brymac team began sourcing and importing their own tiles. The emphasis back then and today is specializing in high-quality European tiles at the cutting edge of fashion and trend but with a difference; price!
By 2010 Brymac tiles had outgrown their little shop behind Briscoes and moved to 42 Durham Street. In 2015 this distinctive black building was refurbished and now boasts a massive downstairs showroom, an intimate architectural studio and a dedicated trade counter for tradesmen and DIYers alike. Not only that; the Brymac installation team are also on-site to offer an installation service second to none.
Over the years the business has diversified and grown while still maintaining the family values, old fashioned service and advice. Years (decades even) of experience have allowed the team to find tiling systems and accessories that Brymac could 100% put their name behind. We now offer, with confidence to tradespeople and DIYers a range of tried and true products and ranges; Ardex, Mapei, Tilers mate, DTA, Kemgrout just to name a few.
Brymac knows tiles and tiling; we believe we offer the best quality European tiles at the best price; materials that you can count on to get any tiling job done and an installation team with a 40-year reputation for quality. Who else can say that?
