Venetian Plaster is an Old World
technique that starts with limestone rocks from rivers or
quarries. By the use of heat, water and time, the limestone
is turned into an amazing “lime putty”. Mixed with such
colorants as ground marble dust, and applied via steel trowels
with refined techniques, Venetian Plaster turns an ordinary wall
or ceiling into a masterpiece.
Although some Venetian Plasters
are polished or “burnished” with a sheen, techniques have been
developed to give a multitude of different effects from suede to
marble to stone. It is through the artisan’s imagination
and the refinement of technique that truly wonderful effects are
created.
