Not your
traditional
concept of plastering.

At VE Polished we specialise in a wide range of handcrafted Venetian finishes that take on bespoke patterns and designs.

What is Venetian Plaster?

Venetian Plaster, which is often known as marble plaster, Italian plaster or polished plaster is made from fired limestone combined with water and marble aggregate or quartz. Free from harmful chemicals, and resistant to mould, it has been used for centuries. It has the ability to provide a beautiful matte finish as well as a highly polished one to furniture, walls, ceilings, and feature walls which can look like marble, and also stone, but also has the ability to take on bespoke patterns and designs.

About VE Polished

Jonny Holliday has been a plasterer for over a decade. From rendering in Australia, to building pizza ovens in Brighton, Jonny comes highly recommended by everyone he works for. Not only is he friendly and professional, he takes great pride in all of his work. The decision to focus on Venetian Plastering came from the desire to make every day different, to use his creativity to create bespoke, exciting spaces using his own hands rather than large-scale equipment. He is passionate about creating that ‘wow’ factor for your home or business.

Why Venetian Plaster?

Using the Venetian Plastering technique is so much more than the traditional concept of plastering. It delivers beautiful decoration and luscious finishes to most surfaces, is highly durable and offers a high-spec, individual design. No two VP projects are the same. Unlike most traditional plasters, there are more than one type of Venetian Plaster and even more finishes that can be created from them. One of the joys of this ancient technique is its versatility; more than one can be used at once to create different effects.

Our Process

At VE, we are client focused and are committed to creating the exact finish that you require. During your initial consultation, we ask you to bring along photo references and we can make sure we match your needs. We carefully mix materials and techniques to create the perfect finish to enhance your space.

At VE, we offer the following selection of finishes:

Classic Polished

Finished with a reflective sheen similar to marble, offering depth with natural shade variations due to light in the area. Smooth to touch and often used in interior design or feature walls.

Marmorino Polished

Arguably the most versatile type of plaster; it can be polished to the point of a mirror finish or kept natural with a lot of texture. Used in interiors and can be used in bathrooms, saunas and wet rooms.

Concrete Polished

The concrete finish is a combination of various different techniques; it can be polished or pitted depending on your design needs. This works particularly well for matte designs.

Chamois Polished Plaster

Gently textured with a soft suede like feel. Great for natural shading and elegant finishes. It’s also been known to offer an additional sense of depth to a space.

Pitted Plaster

The pitting technique is especially effective for textured finishes, stone, or concrete effects. Works especially well for rustic designs wanting to bring warmth and depth into a space.

Dragged Plaster

Resembles natural stone, and has quartz in the mix. Perfect for earthy tones and can be highly polished or textured due to the clients’ tastes
