Glazes
A glaze is a translucent color that is applied over a base color. A decorative effect is achieved by manipulating the glaze. From a subtle brushed effect to dramatic stripes, a glaze gives depth to walls and brings life to a room.

Decorative Plasters
Venetian Plaster is created by applying and sanding three or more coats of marble dust plaster. The finish can be waxed and buffed to give it a high beautiful sheen. Plasters can also be textured or antiqued.
