Columns~Columns~Columns


Many people have wooden columns in there home. Usually these are always painted because that is what everyone else does. Columns are the focal point in the room and painted they just blend into the walls. Over the years we have done many columns. In both residential homes and commercial buildings. One of the applicators I trained got a job in Doyletown Pennsylvania at a Mercedes dealership.  Many of the columns were 28 feet tall. So Off I went and we did all 30 of them. The elegance this brought to the dealership was unbelievable. Having true Italian Plasters is not just for walls anymore.

Even though they were done in white they brought ambiance that no paint ever could.


This next picture is at the Candler building in downtown Atlanta. We did the word renowned Mantovano plaster. The column was breath taking as were the walls. Looked like it was a solid slab of marble.

The first two pictures were done in homes in Atlanta and Dallas Texas. The first Picture we used what is called in Italy Travertino Stuhhi. It has a mat finish because of the large grains of marble. The second one is a true grassello and has a very high shine. Both are equally stunning. So next time you are looking at your columns imagine how your room would feel with Italian Plasters on them. They will totally change the atmosphere of any room.  Transform your room into a romantic villa.
