Ancient Art

Don’t miss this chance to get genuine gold leaf lettering. Because it’s real gold, the work retains its beauty and brilliance for many many years. And because it’s hand crafted, you can get any style, any size.

After all, if your home is your castle, shouldn’t it have a golden address?

History of the Art Form

Gilding (the term used for the application of gold leaf) has been around since the days of ancient Egypt, where it was used on royal mummy cases and furniture. It was also popular with medieval hand-copied books. In current times crafters often cover wooden picture frames with gold leaf.
But gilding and lettering on glass usually applied from the inside, in reverse, is the most difficult. This is why it has almost become a “Lost Art”.
