Can I make a medallion out of travertine pavers?
Just like mosaic, a medallion can be made from travertine pavers. When a person has a pool installed or just a large travertine deck, they will sometimes want some sort of piece custom created to highlight a certain part of their travertine deck. In those cases, a custom center piece medallion can be made to highlight the decking. A custom medallion piece can be created inside the U.S. using a fabricator that specializes in those pieces, or it can be imported directly from Turkey. A custom medallion can be made in the U.S. in 2-4 weeks depending on the size of the travertine medallion and will take about 13-14 weeks to import from Turkey. Usually, the price is significantly less to have the travertine medallion imported from Turkey.
Can I create a border around my travertine pavers?
Yes. You can create a border around your travertine pavers. One way a border is created using travertine pavers is to use travertine French pattern pavers around the deck and then use a 6×12 travertine paver as a border around the French pattern travertine deck. Another common way of using a border is to use a French pattern travertine paver around the deck and then using a 12×24 travertine paver as the border. A 16×24 travertine paver can also be used around the border also. Other combinations are possible in that a 12×24 travertine paver can be used on the deck with a French pattern paver used as the border. 12×12 travertine pavers are also used as a border but any combination of travertine pavers can be used as the deck and any combination of travertine pavers can be used as the border.
