A thick seasoned-lime plaster for realistic stone, travertine, slate and timber effects, on interior walls.

Rialto Mediterraneo grey stone effect finish with contemporary seating

What it is

Mediterraneo is made from slaked lime aged for more than 24 months and fine white Carrara marble aggregate. It’s easy to work, so it can be shaped into textures that recreate natural Italian stone, from smooth finishes to thick, artistic effects.

Its traditional colours can be overlaid with Rialto Velasil, a coloured glaze that adds depth and variation. The brochure shows 20 ready-made finishes to start from.

It’s ready to use, odourless, non-toxic and naturally mildew resistant, with low CO₂ and VOC emissions.
