Mantovano

Created in Manuta, Italy, during the 1100's, Mantua limestone created a more fluid lime than the Venetian lime did, resulting in a finish that had to be applied by brush and trowel. It creates a gorgeous finish that's interesting and smooth at the same time. It can cover imperfections in the drywall and 'orange peel' that many homes have now. After it cures (30 days) it is as hard as stone and very durable.

This Mantovano is from the Safra line of plasters.
