Why Lime Plaster?

  • Natural mineral appearance. Lime-based finishes read as stone and mineral, not as a coat of paint.
  • Handcrafted, not manufactured. Every surround is troweled by hand, so no two fireplaces are identical.
  • Seamless finish. No tile joints, grout lines or panel seams across the face of the fireplace.
  • Custom texture. From nearly smooth to pronounced stone movement, set during application.
  • Custom colors. Tinted to your room, your millwork and the light the fireplace sits in.
  • Modern and traditional. Works with minimal modern surrounds and with classic mantels alike.
  • Stone and travertine looks. Palladino with stone additives builds convincing travertine depth.
  • Subtle organic finishes. Quiet, soft variation when you want the fireplace to feel calm.
