European mineral plaster tradition.

Limestone Plaster

Quiet, matte, architecturally honest.

The Finish

A fine-textured, matte mineral plaster that reads like honed limestone — restrained, monolithic, and deeply tactile.

Built from natural lime and finely graded limestone aggregates, this finish is troweled to a soft matte surface with a subtle stone-like grain.

Where polished plasters reflect, limestone plaster absorbs — perfect for spaces meant to feel calm, grounded, and architectural.

Favored by interior designers for its ability to unify millwork, ceilings, and walls into one continuous monolithic envelope.
