Decorative Finish of the MONTHThis month’s finish is called Stucco Cadere Mattone. Pronounced stùc-co ca-dé-re mat-tó-ne.
This authentic Italian “Venetian” plaster finish is a mixture of several plasters to create the look and feel of a true plaster and brick breakaway wall. I’m sure you have seen several finishes that use paint to create the effect of breakaway plaster but this finish takes that look into reality. The brick is troweled onto the surface in whatever brick formation you design for you client. The bricks can be small, big, stacked stone, with recessed grout or with pronounced grout. The colors are also up to you. The plaster is very unique in that the thicker we apply it the more cracks you get. You can have as neat of a wall with thin texture and very little cracks to resemble a wall that may not be as old but yet has broken away from the brick structure or you can do it the way I like it.... heavy and thick with lot’s of interest. This look is very aged, as if the wall had been plasted many centuries and is showing it’s age.
All plasters are non-toxic, non-flammable, and our mineral plasters create a hypo-allergenic environment, resist dust mites, cools a room because in 28 days they calcify back to stone, resist mold and mildew, and regulate indoor humidity. Our lime plasters are mined from the Italian Alps, so in every home we have the pleasure of knowing that we literally leave a piece of Italy on its walls. Custom hand wall finishes created to your design and liking.
When designing your clients environment it is a good idea to search the web for pictures that will inspire the art work that will adorn the walls. Pictures of real walls will always offer the best examples. If you have a vision but can’t find a picture we can work the design out with you and create a sample board to fit your needs.
