Name: Travertine
Origin: Italy
Colour: Bone white
Characteristics: Fibrous​

Travertine is a dense, compacted form of limestone. A sedimentary rock formed by the evaporation of spring water, rich in calcium and carbonate, both in rivers near waterfalls and in caves by deposits of thermal water in subterranean cavities. This stone is banded and shows the distinctive feature of void spaces.

Sustainability:
Snug is made strictly from natural stone leftovers from a local quarry, which are the remnants from larger projects. All pieces are locally made. No toxic products are added or used during or posterior to manufacturing. 

Product care:
We believe in the value of craftsmanship and natural materials. This results in variations in colour and texture that adds to the special character of Snug where each piece is unique. All products are sold untreated in order to appreciate the natural beauty of stone. Snug is designed to be used with drip-less candles of size ∅22 mm. Personally I believe products should be used and that possible marks from use can contribute to the special history of an object. But, if you want to assure no wax hits the stone please avoid draft. It is also recommended to remove candles when they reach the stone, in order to avoid any possible stains.
