, or for any plaster work where a polish is required, Keene's cement, an English preparation, is generally used; but some of the best grades of American manufacture are said to be as hard and of less expense than the imported cement. Keene's cement is sold in two grades, coarse and superfine, either of which will make a hard finish, but superfine should be used where a polish is to be desired. Scagliola. For interior finish, scagliola, or imitation marble, is used to some extent for columns, da...does, etc. This is made upon a ground of lime mortar containing a large proportion of lime and hair. When this groundwork is thoroughly dry, it is covered with a coat of Keene's cement on plaster of Paris, w r hich is mixed with the various colors and polished until it resembles marble. For flat surfaces, this is sometimes made in slabs upon plate glass. Silk threads, dipped in a thin solution of plaster of Paris, colored to imitate the veining, are arranged upon the glass, and the body color put on over them.
