Sfumato Lime-Based Mineral Plaster — POEMA Product Poster
Sfumato Texture Close-up

A Mineral Surface That Breathes

Want genuine mineral plaster texture without the roughness of traditional lime? Sfumato is the softest lime-based surface -- named after Da Vinci's sfumato technique, it dissolves boundaries, transforming hard architecture into something as atmospheric as mist.

Sfumato is an ultra-matte lime-based mineral plaster. Raw mineral quality coexists with refined elegance. Its lime base provides natural breathability and alkalinity, actively regulating indoor humidity while delivering the visual depth only true mineral materials can achieve. Sfumato belongs to spaces that aspire to timelessness -- equally at home in a Renaissance palazzo or a contemporary gallery.

Light Performance

Ultra-matte, light is fully absorbed. Under natural light, reveals the raw mineral plaster texture; in dim environments, spatial immersion deepens.

Application Level

Advanced (L2+ artisan recommended). Lime-based materials require understanding of hydration reaction characteristics; application rhythm affects the final result.
