Reed mat (plastering)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Reed mat is lathing supplied in a roll. It is made from natural reeds laid parallel, and bound using zinc-plated narrow gauge wire to form a long sheet.
Reed mat is suitable for internal use as a lath for plastering on walls and ceilings.[1] It can be used against a solid background or over studs or joists as a practical alternative lining material to gypsum plasterboard or lath and plaster. Reed mats are particularly suited to using with lime, clay or gypsum plasters in building restoration and new-build.
