Classical Cameo Paint Inlay – Designed by Annie Sloan for Iron Orchid Designs
Create a timeless, classical look with the Classical Cameo Paint Inlay — the artisanal alternative to décor transfers. Use it over Chalk Paint™ to achieve an original, hand-painted finish that leaves a softly distressed, painterly design once the paper is removed.
Annie Sloan designed this inlay for Iron Orchid Designs, drawing inspiration from the elegant carvings found on statues, architecture, and furniture from Ancient Greece and Rome. Expect quintessential Greco-Roman motifs — laurel leaves, oval cameos, and graceful profile portraits — that bring historic beauty to modern furniture projects.
Each application transfers a unique, slightly varied design, giving your piece a truly bespoke finish. The paint formula remains active until sealed, allowing you to blend, layer, or manipulate the design for custom effects. After your first use, you can often achieve a beautifully faded second impression — and sometimes even a third!
Flat Size: 304.8 x 406.4 mm (12 x 16 inches)
Tips & Care:
-
Store your Paint Inlays flat, in their packaging, at room temperature in a dry area.
-
Keep sheets completely dry until you’re ready to use them.
-
Remember: colours will appear slightly lighter before sealing and will deepen once sealed. If you’re working with low-contrast colours, test first to ensure your design stands out beautifully.
