    Impressively so! Even though it was clearly an anagram, I've never heard the word...

    WRONG:

    It's "SCRUFFITO"

    Scruffito came up with no meaning on the dictionary. Sgraffito came up with this:
    sgraf·fi·to P Pronunciation Key (skr-ft, zgrä-)
    n. pl. sgraf·fi·ti (-t)
    1.Decoration produced on pottery or ceramic by scratching through a surface of plaster or glazing to reveal a different color underneath.
    2.Ware decorated in this manner.
