1. Unmatched elegance: whether you are looking for a luxurious and elegant finish such as polished plaster, or maybe something as dramatic as a concrete plaster wall, Venetian plaster adds depth and complexity to surfaces, creating a unique and timeless finish.

2. Durability that stands the test of time: Polished plaster is highly durable and can withstand wear and tear over time. It is resistant to chipping, cracking, and fading, making it a long-lasting option for interior design.

3. Versatility at its finest: Venetian plaster can be applied to various surfaces, including drywall, concrete, and wood. It can be used in both residential and commercial settings, allowing for a wide range of creative possibilities.

4. Elevated light reflection: Polished plasters contain crushed marble and lime putty, which creates a subtle sheen and increases light reflection in a room. This can make the space feel brighter and more spacious.

5. Contributes towards a healthier environment: Polished plaster is a breathable material, allowing for proper moisture evaporation and preventing the build-up of mould and mildew. It helps regulate humidity levels in a room, contributing to a healthier indoor environment.

6. Customisation though artisan craftsmanship: Polished plaster is highly customisable. It can be tinted to create a wide array of colours and shades, allowing for personalised design choices. Different techniques of application can also be used to achieve various textures and effects. At Hikitia, we apply marble, metallics, Liquid Metal’s, clays, mineral finishes and many more.

7. Sustainable, breathable and environment-friendly: Polished plaster is made from natural materials such as lime, marble dust, and other minerals. It is a more eco-friendly option compared to synthetic wall finishes, as it is free from harmful chemicals and emits low levels of VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds).
