Can you tell me the paint type, finish, technique and color used? Thanks

I am interested to know if this is a Benjamin Moore studio finish - metallic or pearlescent glaze?

    It's been awhile and I am more organized now than at the time we did this finish so I can't give exact paint colors but I can explain the technique a little. I believe we did the base coat in a Ben Moore color called Tyler Taupe (or something similar). We then took thin tape and taped off a harlequin pattern. We added a raised stencil with a metallic plaster called Lustrestone (Champagne I think). We then thinned plaster down and created a glaze with it and did an all over scrumbling technique before removing tape and doing one last super thin glaze to make the harlequin pattern fade out. That's basically how we accomplish all of our finishes. Lots of thin layers to add depth. It might seem like overkill for such a basic technique but in the end it is what sets our work apart from most others. The attention to details and rich depth of color. I hope this helps.

    Can you share the trim color and glaze technique/color? Beautiful work.
