I was also sure this was a faux finish but in looking closer I'm quite sure it's wall paper. I personally am going to use textured wall paper in my French Country kitchen to mimic the venetian plaster look. There are fabulous textured wall papers and a new paper that is textured, but you paint it yourself.

This also could be a suede finish that is done in a wide circular motion. I have seen it done and it gave a very similar look. However, it appears as though this could have a little bit of a metallic finish in it.

This is a venetian plaster application.

What colors were used?

Looks like Luster Stone Antique Parchment maybe, the wall paint looks like Sherwin Williams Latte 6108 (sorry but it isn't a venetian plaster)

Christine, Trust me this is not a wall paper and the type of paper you are referring to will not give you a venetian plaster look either. The characteristics of this finish does not reflect a typical venetian plaster or a simple glazing as the dry lines are much lighter in tone as what would be the "wet area". This comes from an inexperienced applicator which is often seen with a metalic type plaster product and there are three that come to mind that I will not mention here. The dry lines are caused by two things "compression" and/or "overlap" The color is beautiful which I am very familiar with also as I have applied miles of this stuff, but without the dry lines.
