| As
a manufacturer and supplier of lime putty based Venetian plaster and Marmorino
we will be showing how to achieve fantastic finishes, including polished plaster
and textured finishes. Our approach is to create a relaxed environment where you
will enjoy learning, with ample opportunity for discussion in the breaks. Course
numbers are limited to 7 people to ensure individual attention. For
each session there is a practical demonstration, then participants have a range
of sample boards to have a go themselves, with guidance at hand. Sample boards
can be taken home at the end of the course. All tools and materials are provided
but please bring protective clothing, safety glasses and suitable gloves. All
materials and tools are available for purchase at the end of the course and participants
are also entitled to a 10% discount on future purchases from our range of Venetian
Plasters and Marmorino, and associated natural soaps, oils and waxes used for
finishes. There
is a 10% discount off the Tadelakt course and the polished plaster course if booked
together. Programme
