It's
An Art

Faux Finishing, Marbleizing, Gold Leaf
We're specialists in these areas

MARBLEIZING IS A UNIQUE DESIGN METHOD"Faux" is a French word, meaning imitation. Faux finishing is a technique learned from the old masters in Europe. As far back as 3,000 years ago the Egyptians were imitating wood and marbles. The Greeks were experts in this art.

Today, this form of art has become popular again due to the need to save our natural resources such as real marble and hardwoods. Faux finishes look wonderful on many surfaces.

WE EMPLOY UNIQUE METHODS TO ACCOMPLISH YOUR GOALSA faux marble combined with a little color imagination will make a fireplace look as if it was designed by an Italian artist. We can create a marble pillar so real as to deceive the eye. Don't believe us, take the test.

Wood graining, which duplicates actual wood is another technique practiced by Echerer painting co. We can take a metal door, apply the wood graining process and make it look like the finest wood door available!

Gold leaf: True gold leaf is far too expensive for amateur decorators, so we practice the art of gilding. A touch of gold to highlight relief carving or moulding can add considerable class.

If you have a picture or can describe what you would like, we can duplicate it!
