Finishing Venetian Plaster with natural polished marble effect
For Interior treatments
Stucco Veneziano or Venetian Plaster is a Architectural wall and ceiling finish, ideal for modern and classic settings. A traditonal finish that lends sophistication and beauty to both residential and commercial environments. Othello Venetian Plaster consists of plaster mixed with marble dust, applied with a spatula or trowel in thin, multiple layers. Next, burnish the plaster surface to create a smooth finish with the illusion of depth and texture. Venetian plaster techniques include marmorino, scagliola, and sgraffito. When left un-burnished, Venetian plaster has a matte finish that is rough and stone-like to the touch. Venetian Plaster can be applied as a smooth, polished, matt finish or can be textured and finished to create Old World rustic charm.
When applied correctly, Venetian plaster can be used to create a highly polished, rock-hard, marble-like finish, cool to the touch and smooth like polished stone. Venetian plaster is especially useful on surfaces where genuine marble could not be installed easily, or on surfaces that would be too expensive to have carved from real marble - columns, corbels and curved walls.
Venetian plaster can be tinted, or colored using natural or synthetic colorants. The ability to tint Venetian plaster is especially helpful when a specific color of "marble" is desired, or when a color that does not exist naturally is wanted.

Polished Plaster, or Stucco Veneziano, is a traditional wall treatment that provides a glossy, visually textured wall finish. Venetian Plaster is a natural formula composed of organic ingredients, calcium, and acrylic binders creating a decorative paste plaster for interior applications. Polishing the surface compresses the calcium within the compound, creating a narble-like finish, cool and hard to the touch.
This treatment is quite versitile, ranging from a rustic backdrop to a refined and elegant finish.
