Marmorino
Classic Italian Stone & Stucco Finish by Colorado Artisans
Marmorino is a traditional Italian plaster made from slaked lime putty and dolomite marble dust with a slightly coarser aggregate than Grassello. This gives it a beautiful smooth stone or fine stucco appearance with subtle depth and movement.
It offers a versatile range of finishes — from soft matte to medium sheen — and creates the look and feel of polished natural stone. Marmorino is highly durable, breathable, and naturally antimicrobial, making it an excellent choice for both interior and exterior applications.
Perfect for accent walls, fireplaces, entire rooms, and outdoor surfaces, Marmorino delivers timeless elegance with excellent longevity.

They turned our wall into a masterpiece! It was awesome watching Jake and his crew transform our wall. It was an ugly knockdown texture and they were able to get it smooth and give us a really cool venetian plaster accent wall. It completely made our living room a much more vibrant space.
Jake and Steven do incredible work, and they couldn’t be more friendly, respectful and trustworthy. We got setup thru our designer to do a roman clay fireplace wall and we’re super impressed with the quality of work and artistic touch applied to our project. Highly, highly recommend Iconic!
Great work and even better customer service! Recommended to anyone looking for work!
I’m so obsessed on how the wall came out! Perfect touch to the studio and I get compliments all day from my clients. Jake and his partner are easy to work with and are super professional. Can’t wait to get more work done by iconic!
