Skin Peltro
The surface turns soft and deep, giving back a light that doesn't reflect but settles — like an object that has moved through time unhurried to show it. The process is entirely manual, leaving each piece with a unique, irregular texture close to the feel of naturally aged metal.
The result is a quiet surface, one that recalls antique pewter objects and carries a sober elegance into the contemporary.
BOISERIE
Skin Peltro anticato boiserie is an aluminum wall covering with an aged silver-effect finish. In the Peltro anticato finish, the surface takes on a material density that moves the boiserie away from the decorative and closer to the architectural — as if the wall itself had gained thickness and memory. The system adapts to any project height, from wainscoting to full-height covering, composing itself according to the proportions of the space it inhabits. The top closure, designed specifically for the system, is where constructive precision becomes visible: a profile made to leave nothing to chance.
Flame Peltro anticato is a three-dimensional aluminum surface with elements of varying depth that create a chiaroscuro effect on the Peltro anticato finish.
Available in boiserie and full-height surfaces. Even in three dimensions, Peltro anticato doesn't seek shine but depth. In the Flame pattern, the alternation of volumes produces no reflections, only shifting zones of shadow, giving a relief that is felt more than seen.
The matte finish sharpens the interplay between solid and void: where Ottone would illuminate every variation in depth, Peltro absorbs it, holding light rather than giving it back.
The covering extends from boiserie to full-height surfaces, keeping the same material coherence across every dimensional development of the project.

FAQ
What is the difference between real pewter cladding and the Skin Peltro Anticato finish on aluminum?
Pewter is heavier than aluminum, and being a softer material, it is more prone to deformation and contact marks. The Skin Peltro Anticato finish on aluminum reproduces the same matte, matter-like opacity and shadow depth of antiqued pewter, but on a lighter substrate that remains stable over time.
Is the Skin Peltro finish suited to high-end interior design projects?
Yes. The finish is designed for settings that call for a silent, opaque surface capable of absorbing light rather than reflecting it — hotel lobbies, boiserie, hospitality, premium residential, and yacht interiors — where pewter creates a material counterpoint to glossier or golden surfaces.
Is the color of this finish uniform?
No, by design. The artisanal process behind the finish seeks a controlled tonal variation, capturing the opaque depth of a metal worked and aged by hand, avoiding the flat, uniform effect of an industrial surface.
