Travertine must be sealed; ask the yard in Sacramento what is in stock today. Photo coming soon. See it in the yard. Golden Sun pavers bring warm gold and yellow tones to a patio. They are travertine, a sedimentary stone. Travertine is a form of limestone deposited by mineral springs, especially hot springs. Unlike irregular flagstone, pavers have straight edges, so they lay out in neat rows and give a space a tailored, finished look. Travertine is porous, so every Golden Sun project should include a plan for sealing. ## Gold and yellow tones The color runs gold to yellow. It suits warm-toned homes, terracotta pots and Mediterranean-style gardens. Travertine often shows small natural pits from how it formed. That texture is part of its look. Because the color is warm, Golden Sun pavers can carry a whole patio on their own. For contrast, border them with a darker stone or edge the beds with pebbles, and bring a photo of your house so staff can help you choose. ## Where Golden Sun pavers work Use them for patios, walkways, courtyards and entry landings. Straight edges make layout simple. For a pool deck, tell staff about your water and read [choosing stone for water features](https://midvalleyrock.com/rock-talk/choosing-stone-for-water-features/) first. Our [flagstone vs pavers](https://midvalleyrock.com/rock-talk/flagstone-vs-pavers/) guide compares the two looks. ## Sealing travertine Because travertine is porous, it must be sealed. Wash it, let it dry 5 to 10 days with sprinklers off, and apply two coats early in the morning. Sealers come in shiny and matte finishes. See [sealing flagstone](https://midvalleyrock.com/rock-talk/sealing-flagstone/), and ask about sealers in our [supplies](https://midvalleyrock.com/supplies/) area. If you cut pavers to fit, cut outdoors with a wet saw or water on the blade, and wear eye protection and a dust mask rated for silica. ## Popular uses - Patios - Walkways - Courtyards - Entry landings - Outdoor dining areas ### Is it in the yard today?
