Velatura A compatible interior/exterior glaze, Velatura is a reliable medium for faux finishing. It is a silicone/mineral based glaze, diluted by water, that reacts amazingly with aggregates and textures. Applicable by brush or other faux tools, Velatura glaze creates delicate tones and transitions in a wide variety of saturation and opacity. Experimenting with dilution is the key to successful finishing with Velatura.
Velatura is an ideal glazing medium for mineral based plaster and stucco effects. In order to preserve certain application systems, such as a mineral based system, we often recommend a finishing mineral glaze such as Velatura. This breathable silicone/mineral based glaze will not create a layer of skin over the texture, a potentially negative approach for long term preservation. So we've categorized Velatura as a mineral faux glaze, compatible with other mineral products and surfaces.
Another example, Velatura is often used as the finishing glaze for the Travertine Tile effect. Absorbing into the texture as would a stain, while maintaining a porous and breathable surface after curing, Velatura is quite unique in this sense. Allowing moisture to escape, and preventing surface coat peeling or flaking, it completes a mineral based finishing system. Inherently, mineral paints and glazes do not flake or peel.

Stucco Rustico is a Traditional interior and exterior textured plaster that epitomizes the rustic old world charm commonly associated with Tuscan environments. I love this treatment for its ease of application and the natural, organic glazed appearance that results when using mineral based plasters and glazes. Whether a rough application or a smooth finish, this treatment holds true to the test of time and, in fact, feels as if time itself stopped to wash the walls personally.
The Rustic Style color palette falls within a distinct range of color tones and is essential in creating a successful Rustic interior. By using the appropriate color tones you can create a variety of design styles ranging from Period and Historic, regional or thematic.

Floral patterns used as accents in fabrics and furniture are common place details in the English Country home.
