A mixture of mural work (6)
I believe the answer is:
stucco
'work' is the definition.
(I have seen 'decorative work' mean 'stucco' so perhaps 'work' could also mean 'stucco')
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for stucco that I've seen before include "Decorative wall coating" , "Mixture for decorative use on buildings" , "Plaster for coating or moulding" , "Fine type of plaster" , "Plaster for coating exterior walls" .)
