Gold Gilding | Real Gold Leaf

This well known sight of the dandelion clock releasing its’ seeds is enhanced by Gold Gilding using 22 carat gold leaf. The gold leaf is laid on base of gesso, which raised the gold slightly above the paper adding both sparkle and texture to the piece.

The gesso has to be made by hand in small quantities and uses the same process and recipe as those used by the monks and scribes who created the illuminated manuscripts such the Book of Kells and the Lindisfarne Gospels.

This is a slow painstaking process as each stage requires time to dry before the next step can be taken.

Each leaf is individually gilded by hand.

• 22 Carat Gold Leaf
• Coloured Pencils Watercolour Paper
