Plaster-Wrapped Monolithic Beam
The Mediterranean minimalist trend has brought textured plaster back into the spotlight. A mantle that is completely wrapped in a rough-textured Venetian or micro-cement plaster creates a beautiful, monolithic look that feels like it was carved out of an ancient clay home. The tactile, chalky texture of the plaster diffuses light beautifully, creating a soft and calming atmosphere. Style this organic mantle with handmade, imperfect wabi-sabi ceramics, dried botanicals, and textured abstract art in neutral, sandy tones to celebrate the beauty of handcrafted simplicity.
