Philadelphia Travertine

Philadelphia Travertine — a distinctive multi-tone travertine with cream, gray, and warm beige tones blended across each tile. Unlike single-color travertine varieties, Philadelphia's natural color variation creates richly layered, organic surfaces. Tile and mosaic formats in filled & honed, tumbled, and split-face finishes.

About Honed Philadelphia Travertine Pencil Liner Molding

Material Education

Philadelphia Travertine is a warm-toned natural stone quarried in the Middle East, prized for its rich blend of walnut browns, creamy beiges, and soft golds. Its surface displays the characteristic linear veining and natural pitting of travertine, giving it an earthy, organic character that polished stones cannot replicate. The honed finish brings out the stone's depth of color while delivering a smooth, matte surface free of reflective glare.

As a product of nature, each piece of Philadelphia Travertine will exhibit its own unique variation in tone, veining, and fill pattern — this is the hallmark of authentic natural stone and adds to the warmth and character of the finished installation.

About this molding: This slim 1/2 × 12 pencil liner molding is a single-piece trim profile designed to add refined linear detail at borders, transitions, and accent rows. The narrow profile makes it ideal for framing tile fields, finishing shower niches, or creating elegant banding between different tile formats.

Design & Inspiration

Philadelphia Travertine's warm walnut and caramel palette pairs beautifully with brushed brass fixtures, warm white oak cabinetry, matte black accents, and cream or beige field tiles, fitting naturally into transitional, Mediterranean, and organic-modern interiors. Its earthy tones ground a space with a sense of natural warmth and timeless sophistication.

The slim pencil liner format is purpose-built for creating crisp decorative borders and architectural detail lines — framing a shower wall, defining a backsplash field, or adding a finished edge to a niche or mirror surround. The honed finish keeps the look refined yet relaxed, never competing with the surrounding tile.

Popular design combinations: pair with large-format honed Philadelphia Travertine field tiles and a warm brushed brass niche shelf for a cohesive, spa-inspired master bath.

The Philadelphia Travertine Pencil Liner is crafted from genuine travertine stone sourced from the Middle East, showcasing the material's signature warm browns, creamy beiges, and natural linear veining. Its organic, earthy tones make it one of the most versatile and timeless natural stone trim profiles available.

Finished with a smooth honed surface, this 1/2 × 12 pencil liner offers a matte, sophisticated look that complements both rustic and contemporary designs. Its slender profile creates clean, precise accent lines that enhance the visual structure of any tiled surface without overwhelming it.

Ideal for use in bathroom showers, backsplash borders, fireplace surrounds, and feature wall transitions, this pencil liner is sold per linear foot for easy quantity planning. Because travertine color and fill can vary between lots, ordering a sample before committing to a full project quantity is strongly recommended.

Free Shipping: As a molding, this product qualifies for free curbside shipping on orders over $1,999 within the continental U.S. Orders below that threshold ship at standard rates calculated at checkout.

Processing & Delivery: Orders are processed within 2–3 business days. Large orders ship via LTL freight — curbside delivery only. An adult must be present to sign for delivery. Estimated transit: 2–10 business days after shipment.

30-Day Returns: Uninstalled tile may be returned within 30 days of delivery. Inspect all tile carefully before installation — installed tile cannot be returned or exchanged. Samples are final sale.

Exclusions: Free shipping does not apply to Hawaii, Alaska, U.S. territories, or international addresses. Additional charges may apply for remote delivery areas.

Sealing: Philadelphia Travertine is a porous stone and must be sealed prior to installation and regularly thereafter. In wet areas such as showers, reseal every 6–12 months with a penetrating, impregnating sealer formulated for travertine. The honed finish, while more forgiving than polished, still absorbs liquids readily if left unsealed.

Cleaning: Clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner diluted in warm water and a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge. Avoid acidic cleaners, vinegar, citrus-based products, and harsh scrubbing pads, all of which can etch or dull the honed surface. Wipe spills promptly, especially oils and acidic liquids.

Installation: Use a white or ivory polymer-modified thinset mortar to prevent any gray bleed-through on the warm-toned stone. Back-butter each piece fully given the narrow profile to ensure complete adhesion. Use non-sanded grout for tight joints and allow full cure time before sealing. Dry-lay pieces along the intended border line before setting to confirm color flow and tone matching across pieces.

Important: Inspect all tile before installation. Variations in color, veining, and texture between pieces are natural characteristics of genuine stone — not defects. Order 10% overage for cuts, waste, and future repairs. Tile & Mosaic Depot specialists are available M–F 8:30AM–5PM PST at 855-797-8453.

Product & Installation Guidance

Natural stone is a product of the earth — every piece is one of a kind. A little planning ensures your finished installation looks its best and lasts for decades.

Natural Variation
Color, veining, texture, shade, movement, finish, and sizing vary from piece to piece. Product photos and samples are a general reference and may not match the exact material you receive. These variations are inherent characteristics of natural stone — they are part of its beauty, not defects.

Before You Install

Order roughly 10% extra to allow for cuts, waste, and future repairs.
Blend tiles from multiple boxes as you work to achieve the most natural, balanced appearance.
Dry-lay and inspect the full layout before setting a single tile.
Installation constitutes full acceptance of the product, so review everything carefully first.

Sealing & Care
Natural stone should be sealed with a quality penetrating sealer before and after installation, and re-sealed periodically in wet or high-traffic areas. Clean only with a pH-neutral stone cleaner; avoid acidic products, bleach, vinegar, and ammonia, which can permanently etch the surface. Outdoor installations may weather or change tone over time with exposure.

Responsibility
Tile & Mosaic Depot is not responsible for improper installation, labor costs, substrate conditions, product misuse, or damage from improper handling, sealing, maintenance, or harsh chemicals. No claims, returns, or replacements can be accepted on installed material.

California Proposition 65: Some natural stone products contain substances known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. For more information, visit www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Order a Sample First

Seeing real stone in your own space — under your own light, beside your own finishes — is the best way to buy with confidence. We make it easy and affordable.

How It Works
Samples are just $7.99 each with free shipping, and they ship in 1–3 business days. Sizes vary by material and availability, typically ranging from 3"×3" up to 8"×8". Exact dimensions aren't guaranteed, but every sample is cut from the same material you'll receive in a full order.

What a Sample Shows
Samples help you evaluate the general color, texture, finish, and overall character of a product before committing to a full order. Because natural stone varies from piece to piece, your sample is representative — it may not capture the complete range of variation across an entire lot. For current lot photos, just ask our team.

Good to Know

Samples are final sale — non-returnable and non-refundable.
Ordering a sample before a full purchase is always recommended, especially for natural stone.
