What do you mean by plaster finishes?

We use the term for hand-applied decorative wall finishes with more body, texture or compression than standard paint, selected case by case based on the desired surface and scope.

Do plaster finishes replace Limewash or Roman Clay?

No. Limewash and Roman Clay remain the primary finish categories. Plaster finishes are considered when a project calls for a different texture, depth or surface character.

If you are exploring a plaster finish beyond Limewash or Roman Clay, the best next step is a consultation about the room, substrate, desired surface character and overall scope.
