GEMS Polished Grassello
Grassello, also known as “marmorino grassello,” is a type of Venetian plaster that offers a luxurious and polished finish to interior surfaces. It is crafted by blending fine slaked lime, marble dust, and other natural additives to create a smooth and velvety texture. The application process involves meticulous layering and burnishing, where the plaster is meticulously polished with a trowel or other tools to achieve a glossy, mirror-like surface. This labor-intensive technique results in a finish that exudes depth, luminosity, and elegance, resembling the polished beauty of marble.

GEMS Stucco
Stucco is a versatile and durable plaster-like material commonly used for both interior and exterior surfaces. Composed of a mixture of cement, sand, and water, stucco is known for its ability to create smooth, textured, or decorative finishes. It can be applied in a variety of ways, from hand-troweled applications that create a rustic, artisanal appearance to machine-sprayed techniques that offer a more uniform texture. Stucco surfaces can be customized through different additives and pigments to achieve a range of colors and visual effects. With its ability to mimic the look of stone, brick, or even intricate patterns, stucco brings both a timeless charm and a modern aesthetic to architectural designs. Its durability and resistance to weathering make it a popular choice for exterior facades, while its ability to be shaped and molded allows for creativity and artistry in interior spaces. Whether enhancing the exterior beauty of a building or adding a unique touch to interior walls, stucco remains a reliable and versatile choice in the realm of construction and design.
