Hi all

Can someone help in identifying these tiles. I really want to install the 1st ones in my lounge and 2nd ones in a bathroom

 

These were seen in West Fields shopping centre, look really hardwearing, I suppose they need to be considering the foot traffic through that place.

The 2nd lot, I was on holiday and seen them in a workshop, none of the staff spoke English. Couldn’t get the name or source. Should be able to get them in the uk. I hope. The slab and tiles are from the same material.

That's not Granite! probably not marble either, polished, high grade, bioclastic, Limestones I would say :dry:

Definitely Travertine, has to be very well sealed - its a porous/faulted material, if laid as a floor any hint of flex and it cracks ( voe ) Looks good tho 😀
