Opus Pattern Question - Tile Advice

[hmtiling]

All multi-format tiles need a pattern and grout joint width specified prior to laying.
If this isn't supplied, then the tiler will have to guess on the best layout pattern. This will result in excess and lack of one or another size of tile.
Chipped-edge travertine tends not to have a grout joint at all, but if you are dealing with any other kind of tile, it is completely necessary to have the correct ratio of tile sizes, a pattern and a grout joint size supplied with the tiles. Cutting down tiles will make for a timely and rubbish-looking job.
Send them back if you don't have all the info supplied with them.

'Chipped Edge travertine tends not to have a grout joint' ? That is nonsense

I do all my multi tile patterns by eye, no need for spacers, some joints may vary slightly, but the overall effect looks fine..
