Clayworks

 I have a keen interest in plaster finishes, a few years ago I spent a 18 months or so learning the basics (it takes years) of traditional Italian finishes, form Rustico to Stucco. I found it fairly complicated and intricate, sometimes with many different elements to make a certain decorative effect. Clayworks omit the ground marble dust and other fancy ingredients, using a simpler recipe with clay to make natural, low impact finishes for buildings. It's nothing new, rather just going  back to the way things used to be done but I like the look and style, and Clayworks seem to totally believe in what the do.
