Venetian Plaster in Chelsea
SW3 · SW10 · A4 / Chelsea Embankment · 15 minutes from central London via the King's Road
Venetian plaster (marmorino, stucco veneziano) is a polished-lime finish applied in three or more thin coats and burnished to a marble-like sheen. Genuine Venetian plaster is a mineral finish, not an acrylic imitation. We work regularly across the SW3, SW10 postcode districts in Chelsea. Most of our work here is designer-led — the interior designer specifies the finish schedule and we're brought in on the shortlist by them. The local stock is largely period townhouses on the streets of the town centre. We also see a steady share of converted mews houses tucked behind the main terraces. Chelsea sits on the A4 / Chelsea Embankment, 15 minutes from central london via the king's road. From here we cover South Kensington (0.6 mi) and Belgravia (1.1 mi) and out to Fulham (1.2 mi) inside our standard service radius. The commercial fabric around the King's Road retail and gallery district shapes a share of the local brief. Venetian plaster feature walls are a real thread in the designer-led work. Chelsea projects almost always involve heritage-consented alterations on white-stucco townhouses.

Do you install Venetian plaster feature walls in Chelsea?+
Yes — polished Venetian plaster is one of the finishes we most enjoy. We're happy to attend a sample meeting with your designer or produce a matched sample board for the specific room.
How many days on site for a Venetian plaster feature wall in Chelsea?+
Typically 5–7 days for a single 15–25 m² feature wall — three coats of Venetian plaster, a polishing pass, and a wax or sealer finish. Depends on the exact system specified.
Can Venetian plaster be applied over an existing painted wall in Chelsea?+
Yes, provided the paint is sound. We prep with a bonding primer, then apply the Venetian plaster system. If the existing paint is failing we'll strip back and re-skim first.
