MANTOVANO
(100% lime plaster)

"Safra considers Mantovano to be their signature finish, because they are the only manufacturer who has researched this finish back to its origins and then produced a plaster that is as close to the original formulas as possible."

"Dating back to the 1100 ad, during the Renaissance, The Mantovano finish originated in the city of Mantua, now known as Mantova."

"Today, castle walls, palaces and architectural masterpieces throughout Italy are still adorned with this unique finish."

"This 100% lime plaster is applied with a brush and a small trowel - just as it was centuries ago."

"Extremely popular in Italy today, it is multi-layered smooth matte finish, with an organic pitted look."

"This finish is as unique as anything on the market today. A must to see."
