Stucco Italiano has undergone a rebranding in 2023 to refresh its image and better reflect the quality of our decorative finishes.
While our products and services remain the same, our logo has been updated to a modern design. If you come across the old red logo, rest assured, it’s still us providing the same quality Stucco Italiano finishes you know and trust.
Stucco Italiano has undergone a rebranding in 2023 to refresh its image and better reflect the quality of our decorative finishes.
Since 1999, Stucco Italiano manufactures fine decorative finishes for both interior and exterior walls, as well as coatings for seamless floors.
Based in the Region of Venice, centre of Italian craftsmanship and architecture, Stucco Italiano is specialised in traditional lime-based plasters, such as Marmorino Venetian Plaster, Travertino and Intonachino. Most of our products sink their roots in the Italian artistic heritage of building finishes. In conceiving our materials we take inspiration from ancient recipes, adapting them to modern technical standards and aesthetic styles, while prioritising the use of natural and sustainable ingredients.

All our decorative finishes are completely distinct and different products. To leave to each artisan creative freedom, we provide our plasters and paints as base materials, and the craftsman him/herself can choose among a wide range of additives for special effects. Most of the materials come in Natural White, and all of them can be coloured in all the 132 colours of our palettes, or of any popular colour chart.

Stucco Italiano was founded in 1999 by Giovanni Polistena, who has 40-years of experience as an artisan and teacher of Venetian decorative arts. He started his carreer at the young age of 22, when he learned the technique of Marmorino from one of the last master craftsmen in the region who could still teach it.
At the time, his passion for Venetian plasters led him to knead lime according to traditional recipes, when no paint-shop was providing this service.
