Raw finish is the rough, unfinished stone surface left after sawing or extraction, before grind or polish. Factories and buyers use it for blocks, slabs, or pieces still in process.
Honed is a matte stone finish made by abrasive grinding without a high-gloss polish. Buyers order it when they want a smooth, low-sheen surface for floors and walls. In trade it is widely called apomazado in Spanish.
Filled finish means natural pores and cavities in the stone are closed with filler before final surfacing. It is common on travertine so the face reads solid rather than open-void.
Polished is a smooth, reflective stone surface produced by successive mechanical polishing. It is ordered when a glossy face is required on marble, limestone, or similar stones. Spanish trade commonly says pulido.
Sandblasted (abrasive-blasted) finish is a uniformly rough stone texture made by blasting the face. It reduces slip and hides minor surface variation.
Honed is a matte stone finish made by abrasive grinding without a high-gloss polish. Buyers order it for smooth, low-sheen floors and walls.

Brushed finish is a stone surface textured with abrasive brushes, giving light relief and a softer feel than polish. It is ordered on many limestones and travertines. Spanish: cepillado; Turkish: fırçalı.
Open-pore travertine keeps its natural voids unfilled on the visible face. Buyers choose it for a more natural, textured look versus filled pore. Spanish trade names it poro abierto.
Tumbled finish is a weathered look with softened edges and an aged surface, usually from tumbling or similar aging.
Unfilled honed is a matte (honed) face with natural pores left open—common on travertine when open pore is required. Turkish: dolgusuz honlu; Spanish: apomazado poro abierto. It combines finish and pore-fill choices in one order phrase.
Sawn finish is the stone face left as cut by the saw, without grind or polish. It reads flat and slightly rough and is often a base for later finishing.
Aged finish is a weathered, softened stone surface that mimics natural wear—often via tumbling or similar aging. Edges feel muted rather than sharp.
Filled honed is a matte (honed) face whose pores were filled before or during finishing. It is a frequent travertine order string. Turkish: dolgulu honlu; Spanish: apomazado poro tapado.
Unfilled means natural pores and voids in the stone are left open on the visible face—common on travertine when buyers want an open, natural look.
