Daylesford Organic, a growing chain of organic food store/cafés in the UK. Their stores are filled with simple clean contemporary lines and soothing earth tones that are perfect fit for their brand of organic living. The technique used to achieve marble look is called marbling faux finish and it consists of applying the grains with paint (with rug or brush) then brushing with dry and wide brush for smooth colour mixing. The top finish is transparent high gloss glaze to give the polished- marble-look-like appearance. An alternative of this faux finish is called Venetian plaster technique achieved by application of primer, Venetian plaster, coloured Venetian plaster, stucco and wax. Actually these are basic techniques which pattern can vary in many different ways, as it is the final effect.
