Polished plaster finishes originate from early Venetian times, when highly skilled craftsmen learned to transform a lime and marble ‘putty’ into a surface which had the appearance of polished marble. ARTENOVA have developed a range of modern products combining these skills with current technology, to include waterproof surfaces suitable for bathrooms and kitchens. A variety of colours and textures are available to add a distinctive decorative edge to any room in the home (or workplace).



 

VENEZIANO of ARTENOVA is today’s expression of research based on culture, experience and tradition. STUCCO VENEZIANO innovatively renews all the chromatic and aesthetic emotions which have been handed on by the master decorators of the Serenissima Republic of Venice.

STUCCO VENEZIANO of ARTENOVA is a self-polishing spatuled covering, free from oils and paraffin waxes. It is ideal for protecting and decorating internal and external wall surfaces over civil plaster works, vibrated concrete, chalk smoothing, chalk coated millboard, wood, etc. Soft and mellow, it can be applied indifferently with a stainless steel trowel or spatula, depending on the desired final effect. The suppleness of the material, combined with simplicity and speed of application, make it “unique” in the wide panorama of decorative stuccoes. The surface is washable with water and detergent, or water and ammonia. STUCCO VENEZIANO is available in white and neutral in cans of 15, 5 and 2.5 litres, and can be coloured with the wide range of ARTECOLOR pastes. It can also be coloured with the multipurpose colorants UNIVERSAL COLOR, types WL and with tinting machines.

The particular composition of STUCCO VENEZIANO together with various application cycles enables the user to obtain many different tones, shades and transparencies - all of them highly decorative.

 

CALCENOVA ARREDO furthers the ARTENOVA line’s commitment to the Italian art of making spatula-applied plasters based on thoroughly matured slaked lime. The infinite spectrum of colours, their intensity, and the sheer pleasure of working with this product puts it a class of its own.

CALCENOVA ARREDO is an organic mineral coating suitable for application, by spatula or trowel, on interior surfaces in conventional plasterwork, pre-cast concrete, gypsum plaster and plasterboard. Full-bodied yet smoothly flowing, it can be applied equally effectively by stainless steel trowel or spatula, depending on the effect required. The speed and ease with which it is applied make it unique among smoothed-lime plasters currently on the market. CALCENOVA ARREDO is immune to deterioration, exhibits excellent filling power, and neither cracks nor crumbles.

Supplied in 15 and 5 litre containers, CALCENOVA ARREDO can be tinted with the fully-compatible colours from the ARTECOLOR range or, alternatively, with the multi-purpose UNIVERSAL COLOR colorants range in the alkali-proof, WL-oxide version.
The smooth, full-bodied quality of the filtered and milled slaked lime combines with the pigment pastes to achieve blending, softening and other colour effects of unmatched depth and tone.

 

MARMORINO represents ARTENOVA line`s formulations of one of Italy`s traditional Italian stone-substitute applications, comprising slaked lime, filtered of any impurities, and crushed marble. It trowels to a smooth, perfect finish that lets you see but not touch the applicator`s strokes.

MARMORINO of the ARTENOVA line is a medium-build mineral covering trowelled to give satin-finished, marbling effect of remarkable smoothness and evenness. It provides protection to properly prepared interior conventional palsterwork, pre-cast concrete, gypsum plaster and plasterboard, as well as exterior lime plaster. Thick and dense, it is worked using a stainless steel trowel in several passes to obtain a uniformly compact surface. Thanks to its excellent filling power and long-term chemical stability/immunity to deterioration, it neither cracks nor crumbles. It is also unaffected by rain or frost and exhibits excellent permeability, preserving the ability of the substrate to breathe.

MARMORINO is already formulated in 30 fully compatible colours from the ARTECOLOR range. The product can also be custom-tinted with the LE TERRE earth pigments, or with the multi-purpose UNIVERSAL COLOR range in the alkali-proof, WF-oxide version.

The granular composition of the fine marble flour, coupled with the thoroughly matured slaked lime, produce outstanding decorative effects and depths of colour which can be further enhanced, on interior surfaces, by waxing.

 

TRAVERTINO is ARTENOWA line’s way of unveiling today the secrets of the reconstituted stone and marble techniques closely-guarded by the Italian Master Masons for centuries. In this case, the stucco reproduces the typical, pock-marked effects of Travertino, a stone found around Tivoli.

TRAVERTINO of the ARTENOVA line is a medium-build mineral covering trowelled to give a satin-finished, pock-marked effect of remarkable smoothness and evenness. It is ideally suited for the protection and decoration of properly-prepared interior surfaces in conventional plasterwork, pre-cast concrete, gypsum plaster and plasterboard, as well as exterior lime plaster. Thick and dense, it is worked using a stainless steel trowel in two passes and then pressed to obtain a uniformly compact surface; while setting, the surface is them lightly scraped to achieve the pock-marked effect typical of this stone. Thanks to its mineral binders, TRAVERTINO exhibits excellent vapour permeability, which allows the plasterwork to breathe, and thus keeps it from deteriorating and crumbling.
Supplied in 15 litre size containers, TRAVERTINO is available in standard white and is already formulated in 30 fully-compatible colours from the ARTECOLOR range. The product can also be custom-tinted with the “LE TERRE” earth pigments, or with the multi-purpose UNIVERSAL COLORANTS range in the alkali-proof, WF-oxide version.

The very distinctive pock-marked effect of this product makes it unique among decorative mineral stuccoes.

 

ARTENOVA COCCIO PESTO incorporates the unique combination of powdered crushed marble, roof-tiles and white mortar lime. This is applied in 3 overlapped, smoothed coats which, with repeated polishing, takes on the surface of marble and a distinctive decorative effect. This can be enhanced further by waxing, if required.

It is a dense material applied by trowel in several passes to achieve the desired finish, and can be used on prepared plasterwork, gypsum plaster or plasterboard. It has excellent filling characteristics and does not crack or crumble.

Coccio Pesto is naturally white but can be transformed using the wide range of ARTECOLOUR pigments. Although highly versatile, this product is not waterproof, so is not recommended for bathrooms

 

STUCCO VENEZIANO METALLO combines the traditional knowledge with new material research to create a metallic self-polishing covering free from oils or paraffin-based waxes. It is available in gold, silver, bronze and copper – but can also be further tinted with the ARTECOLOUR range of pigments to create subtle and unique colourations.

Applied by trowel or spatula, for different effects, it can be applied to interior walls of prepared plasterwork, gypsum plaster, plasterboard and even wood. It has a unique soft creamy texture which makes it suitable for a wide range of applications.
