FIREPLACES & FURNITURE GALLERY

Furniture and fireplaces are a couple places where a beautiful finish can be a perfect accent to your interior. Whether it be the warm glow of a finely finished table or the textural richness of a naturally pigmented age lime plastered fireplace, we know how to make it look great!

I used natural pigmented aged lime Italian plaster on the inner fire box of this fire place. This type of plaster is natural and the pigments to color it are mined from the earth. As a result it was the perfect choice to seamlessly blend the box with the limestone front. Here's one of my favorites. Originally this fireplace was made of brick with a niche in the center. I framed it out, applied wallboard, then plastered it. The plaster is natural pigmented aged lime Italian plaster. It's simple, understated, and beautiful. This freestanding fire place is coated with natural pigmented aged lime Italian plaster. The gray tone and stone-like appearance of the material really lend themselves to the contemporary feel of this well-designed residence. This fireplace, coated with Marmorino plaster, shows nicely a classic Italian color scheme. The color is derived from natural pigments. These pigments are mined in such places as Italy, France, Turkey, Cyprus, and Northern Africa...Truly unique! This brick fire place, wood mantel, and wood paneling behind the fireplace have all been brushed with gloss white Dutch enamel... Simple and elegant. This fireplace was done in an Italian plaster colored with a rare earth pigment called Plum Green. The resultant finish is warm, understated and overall very pleasing. This fireplace is an excellent example of the beauty of Venetian stucco.
It's high gloss shine and marble-like translucency make it simply stunning. This custom built outdoor dinning table is nothing short of spectacular.
The top is a 10' slab of quilted Bubinga. The base is fabricated from Wenge and stainless steel. To get the most definition, color and protection I applied 8 coats of Dutch marine varnish. In person the table is breath taking. This conference table is maple wood with a yellow aniline dye and satin clear topcoat. The yellow creates a fun yet professional look. The wood on the tabletop and chairs was dyed orange to add a splash of color and interest to this meeting room. The bookshelves and TV cabinet were a custom design made of MDF. MDF is an excellent material to build cabinets with when seeking a smooth and stable surface. The smoothness of this material lends itself very well to being coated with high gloss automotive paint as used on this project. These end tables were finished in resin-covered pigskin. Although cool, they didn't work with the updated interior and beautiful custom coffee table. I mixed up an opaque matte taupe colored finish and sprayed them. They now fit into this ensemble nicely. The mirror frame in this nicely plastered bathroom was made of door casing trim and painted off white. It didn't look special enough atop the plastered walls. With a little paint, gold leaf, and antiquing glaze I was able to achieve a great look. The dinning chairs in this picture were clear Lucite. I gave them a fine sand blasting and a matte clear topcoat. The frosted glass effect turned out to be very pleasing. The table base and chairs were sprayed with gloss Dutch enamel. This versatile finish looks great on furniture as well as woodwork.
