Lime paint and lime plaster are having a well-deserved moment, and it's easy to see why. Although these natural mineral finishes have been used for centuries, they've recently become a favorite for adding warmth, movement, and timeless character to today's interiors. As a bonus, they're breathable, zero VOC, and naturally resist mold, mildew, and bacteria, helping support healthier indoor spaces.
So what's the difference? Lime paint is brushed on in thin layers to create a soft, matte finish with beautiful color variation, making it ideal for lower traffic areas. Lime plaster is applied by hand with a trowel in multiple layers, creating greater texture, depth, and a stone-like appearance that's also more durable. Both offer a one-of-a-kind finish that simply can't be replicated with traditional paint, making them a beautiful choice for anyone looking to add lasting character to their home.
