Campiello
Venetian Plaster

Campiello Venetian Plaster
Campiello is
decorative paste
stucco for
interior
applications
that delivers a
highly
decorative,
glossy finish.
It is a natural
formula composed
of vegetable
ingredients,
calcium, and
acrylic binders.
The Veneziano
Effect is
inspired by the
ornate
plaster-work of
Renaissance
Italy. Campiello
Decorative
stucco has a
millennial
history. Its
origins date
back to the Rome
of the Caesars
and in the art
of Ancient
Greece. It was
Andrea Palladio,
a famous Italian
architect that
in the XVI
century
re-discovered it
through his
studies and
re-proposed it
in the splendid
Venetian villas
that are the
distinguishing
mark of his
career.
Campiello is an
aesthetic
solution that
step by step
conquered
Lombardy, then
Italy, and
finally entire
Europe of the
XVII century.
Today, Campiello,
the new
decorative
stucco of the
Max Meyer
Professional
Line, restores
the splendor of
a classic and
prestigious
finish.

imitation gold must have
