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. Free sample shipping.

About Philadelphia Travertine 1×2 Split Face Mosaic

Material Education

Philadelphia travertine is a warm-toned natural limestone formed by mineral-rich spring deposits, quarried from classic Mediterranean and Middle Eastern regions renowned for centuries of stone craftsmanship. Its surface reveals a rich tapestry of russet, walnut, ivory, and caramel tones layered with organic veining and characteristic voids that give travertine its unmistakable textural identity. The split face finish exposes the stone's raw, cleaved interior, amplifying its three-dimensional relief and earthy depth.

As a genuine natural stone, each chip of Philadelphia travertine will differ subtly in tone, texture, and patterning — this inherent variation is the hallmark of authentic travertine, not a flaw.

About this mosaic: Small 1×2 rectangles are arranged in a straight-set grid pattern on a mesh-backed sheet, delivering bold dimensional texture in an easy-to-install format that dramatically reduces layout and cutting time on any installation.

Design & Inspiration

Philadelphia travertine's warm amber, sienna, and cream palette pairs beautifully with oil-rubbed bronze and brushed brass fixtures, wide-plank white oak flooring, and linen or terracotta textiles, lending itself naturally to rustic, Mediterranean, Tuscan, and warm contemporary interiors. Its earthy warmth also bridges beautifully with organic modern and biophilic design schemes where raw natural materials take center stage.

The split face finish adds dramatic shadow and relief to feature walls, fireplace surrounds, and accent niches, transforming flat surfaces into richly tactile focal points. At the 1×2 mosaic scale, the stacked rectangular chips create a refined grid rhythm while the rough cleft surface keeps the overall feel grounded and natural.

Popular design combinations: Philadelphia travertine split face mosaic as a fireplace surround flanked by large-format honed travertine field tiles and brushed brass sconces for a cohesive warm-stone statement.

Premium Natural Stone

Secure Packaging

Philadelphia travertine is a naturally formed sedimentary stone celebrated for its layered warm tones of caramel, russet, walnut, and ivory, quarried from regions with a long heritage of premium stone production. The organic voids and flowing veins embedded in its surface tell the story of its ancient mineral origins, bringing an irreplaceable sense of depth and character to any space.

The split face finish is achieved by cleaving the stone along its natural grain, revealing a raw, jagged surface that catches light dramatically and creates rich shadow lines across the mosaic field. Pre-mounted on a mesh backing in 1×2 rectangular chips, these sheets install quickly and consistently, making them well-suited for both professional contractors and experienced DIY installers.

This mosaic is ideal for interior accent walls, fireplace surrounds, spa shower feature walls, and exterior-inspired indoor niches — anywhere that calls for bold natural texture with warm earthy character. Because this is a clearance or specialty item, ordering a sample is strongly recommended to confirm color and texture compatibility with your project before committing to a full order.

Free Shipping: As a mosaic, 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 natural stone and must be sealed before grouting and after installation. Apply a penetrating stone sealer rated for travertine, and reseal every 12 months in wet areas such as showers. The split face texture increases surface area and porosity, so thorough sealer saturation is especially important — apply liberally and allow full penetration before wiping excess.

Cleaning: Clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner diluted in warm water using a soft brush or cloth. The textured split face surface can trap soap scum and mineral deposits, so regular rinsing after use in wet areas is recommended. Never use acidic cleaners, vinegar, citrus-based products, or abrasive scrubbers, as these will etch and erode the stone surface over time.

Installation: Use a white polymer-modified thinset mortar to prevent any dark adhesive from showing through the stone's natural voids. Back-butter each sheet in addition to applying thinset to the substrate to ensure full coverage on the uneven split face surface. Align mesh sheets carefully and use tile spacers as needed to maintain consistent joint lines; finish with a sanded grout in a complementary earth tone to fill the deeper relief between chips.

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.

Why Order a Sample
A screen can't show you how Calacatta veining reads under your kitchen lights or how a porcelain finish sits next to your cabinet color. A sample can. It's the single best way to buy stone or porcelain tile with confidence — and the cheapest mistake you'll ever avoid.

How It Works
Samples are $7.99 each. Samples ship free and leave our warehouse within 1–3 business days. Sizes vary by material and availability — typically 3"×3" up to 8"×8" — and every sample is cut from the same material stocked for full orders.

What a Sample Shows
Color, texture, finish, and overall character. Because natural stone varies piece to piece, one sample represents the material but can't show the full range of a lot. Porcelain samples are highly representative of the production run. Want to see the current lot before you commit? Ask us — we'll send photos.

Good to Know

Samples are final sale — non-returnable and non-refundable.
We recommend sampling before every full order, especially for natural stone.

Talk to a Specialist
Our stone and tile specialists will help you narrow it down. Call (855) 797-8453 or email sales@tileandmosaicdepot.com, Monday–Friday, 8:30 AM–5 PM PT.

How Your Order Ships
In-stock orders leave our warehouse within 2–3 business days. Stone, porcelain, and mosaic ship on a pallet via scheduled LTL freight and arrive 2–10 business days after dispatch, depending on destination. You'll get tracking and the carrier's name by email the day it ships.

Freight Delivery — What to Expect

The carrier calls you first. Every freight delivery is by appointment. Expect a call or text to set a window before the truck is dispatched.
Curbside delivery. The driver unloads to the curb or driveway. Freight does not include carrying material indoors or into a garage — plan for a helper or a hand truck.
Someone 18+ must sign. Inspect the pallet before signing. Note any damage, shortage, or broken shrink-wrap on the delivery receipt — this is what makes a claim valid.
Truck access. The address must be accessible to a full-size freight truck with enough space to unload.

Free Shipping
Free curbside freight on qualifying mosaic and molding orders over $1,999 in the continental U.S. Field tile, porcelain, and other product types ship at freight rates shown at checkout. Not available to Hawaii, Alaska, U.S. territories, or international addresses.

Damage & Shortages
Report within 3 calendar days of delivery with photos of the pallet, packaging, and affected pieces to sales@tileandmosaicdepot.com. Verified claims are covered. Shortages of 1–5 pieces are refunded rather than reshipped — which is why we recommend ordering 10% overage.

30-Day Returns
Uninstalled tile in full, unopened boxes may be returned within 30 days of delivery. Return freight is paid by the customer. Partial boxes, opened boxes, installed material, and samples are final sale.

Questions Before You Order?
Call (855) 797-8453 or email sales@tileandmosaicdepot.com, Monday–Friday 8:30 AM–5 PM PT. If you're unsure about freight access at your address, ask us before checkout — we'll flag anything that could hold up delivery.

Natural Variation
Quarried stone varies in color, veining, shade, movement, and finish from piece to piece and from lot to lot. Screen photos and samples show the range, not the exact tile you'll receive. Variation is the nature of the material and is never grounds for return. Porcelain is far more consistent, but shade and pattern can still shift between production runs — buy your full quantity in one order.

Before You Install

Order 10% overage. Covers cuts, breakage, and spares for future repairs. Reorders may not match in tone or lot.
Inspect every piece before setting. Pull from all boxes, blend, and dry-lay the full area. Installation is acceptance — no claims are honored once tile is set.
Hire a qualified installer. Natural stone and large-format porcelain require experience with the material. Your installer is responsible for substrate, setting materials, and method.

Sealing & Care
Natural stone should be sealed with a penetrating sealer and re-sealed periodically in wet and high-traffic areas. Clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner only — vinegar, bleach, ammonia, and acidic cleaners etch marble, limestone, travertine, and onyx permanently. Porcelain does not require sealing. Outdoor stone weathers and shifts in tone over time; this is expected.

Responsibility
Tile & Mosaic Depot supplies material only. We are not responsible for installation, labor costs, substrate conditions, setting materials, product misuse, or damage from handling, sealing, maintenance, or chemicals. No claims, returns, or replacements are accepted on installed material.

California Proposition 65
