Revoltón Canillas - Curved concrete infill block for rustic ceilings
Revoltón Canillas: the traditional wine cellar ceiling
The revoltón ceiling, that gentle vault between one beam and the next, is the classic look of traditional houses and wine cellars. The Revoltón Canillas delivers it with curved concrete pieces measuring 14 × 65 × 25 cm in five colors, which rest between beams or corbels and form the vaulted infill without formwork or plasterwork.
✅ Main advantages
Masonry vault: the curve comes ready-made: it rests between beams and the ceiling ends up vaulted.
Five colors: Arena, Blanco, Crema, Gris and Salmón, to match wooden or concrete beams.
Maintenance-free: it doesn't crack like plaster or need constant repainting.
Manageable 11 kg piece: quick, piece-by-piece installation.
Cheaper full pallet: 112 units at a better price per piece.

🧰 Installation
Check the spacing between beams: the pieces must rest on both sides.
Set each revoltón between the beams and bed the ends in mortar.
Work in complete courses, aligning the curves.
Grout the joints and finish the junction with the beam.
💡 Professional tip: combine the light-toned revoltón with wood-effect corbels: the contrast between the dark beam and the light vault is what gives the ceiling its traditional look.
