A new era of clay begins
If you’re searching for a finish that does more than cover a wall, one that sets a mood, tells a story, and feels deeply considered, meet Intonachino Argilla.
This all-new natural clay plaster is handcrafted from selected natural clays, mineral sands, and marble powders. Rich in texture and quiet complexity, it’s made for interior designers, architects, and artisans who value materials that are as beautiful as they are sustainable.
The story beneath the clay surface
Clay is timeless. For centuries, it has been used not only to build, but to adorn, bringing warmth, texture, and character to walls, floors, and facades. Intonachino Argilla continues that legacy, crafted for decorative finishes that speak of craft, place, and purpose.
Whether you're rendering a surface or sculpting a detail, this clay invites you to create with both your hands and your eye. It’s designed to transform interior walls, ceilings, and fireplaces into quiet, textural features that elevate the room.
Available in two curated grain sizes — 500 for refined elegance and 1000 for a more rustic, tactile effect — it allows you to match the scale and mood of each space with intention.
Built for customisation
We know every project is different, and so is every designer’s vision. Intonachino Argilla is fully customisable, giving you flexibility far beyond the standard swatch. Start with our in-house colour palette or match any sample, from paint manufacturers to fabric offcuts and found materials. It’s a finish that adapts to your concept, not the other way around.
Take your finish a step further with natural and recycled additives that bring tone, light, and dimension to your walls while keeping sustainability at the forefront. Each ingredient is thoughtfully sourced to enhance the surface with authentic texture or subtle movement, creating striking, character-filled finishes without compromise. Whether you’re drawn to earthy subtlety, sculptural intrigue, or expressive feature walls, Intonachino Argilla allows you to craft your space with both beauty and conscience.
