The color background of this stone is entirely uniform and without a halo. Atashkooh stone mine is located in Markazi province, Mahallat city, which is almost nearing completion, so its demand is very high and has a higher price.
4. Abegarm Travertine: Abegarm travertine is one of the building’s white stones. This stone with creamy veins is the best option for modern and classic facades. It also has a high reputation and with a reasonable price can meet all tastes with any budget.
