Reverse Glass Gold Leaf

Reverse Glass Gold-leaf Signs & Wall art

Traditional reverse glass gilding and painting, beautifully hand-lettered and hand-crafted onto the reverse of glass using age old methods and techniques and real gold leaf. I love to create bespoke designs, made especially for you. Perfect gifts to celebrate a special occassion, such as weddings, birthdays, new arrivals or housewarming present. These artworks become precious keepsakes and are the antiques of the future!

Stunning ‘reverse glass gilding’ involves applying a design in reverse onto the back of glass using oil-based enamel paints and genuine gold leaf. There are various techniques of applying the gold leaf to produce either a matt or mirrored effect using water or oil-based size and/or acid embossing. I also use mother of pearl shell inlays and glitter to create beautifully reflective statement interior art, ideal as gifts for special occasions, events and beautiful home décor.

This was a bespoke commission for a fan of The Umbrella Academy. The client gave me a free reign to create a design based on her favourite character number 3. To create this stunning artwork, I used 23carat gold-leaf, 12carat white gold-leaf, glitter and enamel signwriting paints. Then I fitted a solid wood frame with ready to hang fixtures. I absolutely loved making this fun design and I’m pleased with the result. Most importantly, the recipient loves it too!
