Also referred to as polished plaster, Venetian plastering provides a luxury, bespoke wall finish that complements every room. With its origins dating back more than 2000 years, this plaster was first seen in ancient Egypt and Greece but is more widely known for gaining popularity in Venice. This traditional wall finish is composed of a lime-based putty mixed with marble dust to create a waterproof surface that hardens over time, making Venetian plaster one of the most durable high-end wall finishes available. This plaster also offers natural antibacterial properties making it resistant to mould and mildew.

The experts at Organic Plastering provide stunningly artistic applications of Venetian plaster for clients throughout Bath and the surrounding areas. Our highly skilled and passionate craftsmen create exquisite and timeless works of art using only the finest quality materials. Every piece we complete is unique; due to the nature of this material and our eye for detail, we’ll create a completely bespoke surface – you won’t see the same one anywhere else.

Thanks to its incredibly flexible and durable nature, Venetian plastering can be applied almost anywhere. From bathrooms and wet rooms to feature walls and ceilings, the addition of polished plaster brings texture and exclusivity wherever you choose it to be. At Organic Plastering, we work closely with each of our clients to ensure that we achieve the finish that they had imagined. From collaborating ideas to choosing complementary colours, working with our experienced professionals will help you achieve the best results.

Venetian plaster is applied in thin layers using a spatula or trowel; these layers are then built up to create the desired effect. The plastering is then burnished to create an incredibly smooth surface which gives the illusion of depth and texture. If left un-burnished, you will be left with a matte, rough and stone-like finish. Whilst this option can look fantastic, its brittle nature means it damages very easily.

Once the experts at Organic Plastering have completed your Venetian plastering, you’ll find a highly-polished, marble-like surface. This technique is a perfect alternative to using marble panels; both difficult to install and expensive to have carved for bespoke curves, fitting solid marble has many challenges. Venetian plaster offers the same effect as a marble panel but can be easily applied to fit the most intricate of architecture – it really is a perfect choice.

The Venetian plaster applied by the professionals at Organic Plastering can be tinted to create the colour of choice. Whether you are looking for a specific colour of marble or something to match your existing décor, our experts will compose the perfect colour for you.

At Organic Plastering, we are dedicated to providing an outstanding service. Combining the use of the highest quality materials with the fine skill of our experts, we create high-end, bespoke Venetian plaster designs which will stand the test of time.
