A ribbon joint to mock stone I think in Fremantle.
The stone lacks grain and I dont even recognise the stone.
An example of what is known in the vernacular as Dado or cement glass render. Almost a lost art to get it right. As an apprentice I was privileged to see it done.
Some apprentices out of the Building Management Authority have taken this product to the next level creating colours etc.
In the past plasterers created faux marble, some so skilled it was hard to distinguish between the real item.
