Fantastic work! I'm impressed with the exquisite carpentry of this table. To build is hard enough, but to match it exactly as a pair.. wow, that is master level!! It was gratifying to see the craftsmanship of the gilding with no shortcuts taken, done the right way, without being pressured for time. That is rare these days. Thank you for being able to watch real artists at work!
Absolutely astounding! Not just the gilding but also the wonderfully reproduced table base construction. Excellent lesson in the art of gold leaf application and on the whole a fabulous demonstration, thank you so much folks.
Finally I found a respectable video on you tube, tired of watching amateurs ,my hat's off to you if I wore one, I would clap but I only have one hand, and would give you a standing ovation but I am handicapped. ,so I'll just say good job ,keep it up and you have all my respect
What a fab find, am working on an antique sewing machine case, unique piece - looks like a jewelry case - Requiring some patient restoration - thus, I've decided to Gold Leaf some areas on it so I can manage to get the value of my labor when I price the piece. A craftsmanship/technique I've yet to try - we shall see if I Master it - 1st try - (truly believe 8 must have been an artist/designer in another time - I'm blessed with a "just know how and/or quick study"
what liquid are are you putting on the on the project just before you place the gold leaf? Should the liquid dry before you place the leaf, and what kind of gold leaf is that you use?
Gold leaf you could probably get from a local well sorted paint/artist shop, otherwise you have Manetti in Italy or some big gilding suppliers in Germany. As for a price estimate for your furniture I cant give you any indication until I have seen them. Depending on size and shape the price can vary a lot. But you are wellcomed to send some Pictures of them to our mail adress, you will find it on our website.
Fantastic work ! Nice to see a fine example of real gilding. Was wondering what kind of solvents / or varnish finish you used for achieving the final patina to give it the antique look.
Amazing work! Masterpiece! Is there any way to make gold plate fully waterproof? Id like to "pimp up" my old, ugly bathroom sink, but i dont know: can i use some regular clear bathtub-varnish or rather some resin-varnish for the finish?
Christer is a woodworking artist for sure!!! And Lotta, what can I say, so professional, a true artist!!! I have a quick question, I see you are using a combination of real gold and metal leaf. I want to know if you can burnish the metal leaf with the agate stone the same way you burnish the real gold??? Please let me know!
although this is expert, gilding was justly critisized when it is used excessively it hides the beautiful wood. A gold surface is a harsh surface to the eye, wood is neutral and beautiful.
Hello, great vids! I have been looking at charbonnel as a glue but Im not sure whether it will stick on my plastic i want to be shiny golden. Will it stick?
My question is what kind of fake gold leaf you use and where you can get it and the brand of glue, I hope you can help me, since you are one of the few who really do know what it is to apply gold leaf, greetings from Jalisco Mexico
Very nice. I want to do calligraphy on an oil gilded surface, but I have to draw lines on the surface that I would like to remove afterwards. Any suggestions?
Those gold leaf remnants stick around, almost like stripper glitter. You cannot get rid of it, and still find it all around you a week later... so I hear. ;-)
Perché è stata fatta metà in oro zecchino 24 e metà in similoro è una richiesta o perché il similoro lo dovevate invecchiare con il bitume ;Comunque complimenti siete professionali
just beautiful! thanks for the video! I bought on ebay gold leaf but its fake gold I think where do u buy gold leaf? can u gild my console table with mirrow? how much do u charge? thank you,i d love to be your student
The tool is called a Agate burnisher and I dont know what you could use instead...in the old days, I have been told, gilders sometimes used a wolf or bear tooth.

This artist is worth her weight in gold ~ nice work.
For the metal leafs we use a 12-hour oil size and as for the water gilding its just water that activates the animal glue in the gesso.
My teacher, I am from Mexico, taught me to put a bit of grenetine in the water
Would you like to know the details of the water that you can use to attach gold?
@@ketwalinsutajan2501 OH!... Of course, thank you!
Maravilloso!
@@maria-ceciliapeon5776 en el proceso usa oro fino y oro metal...El oro metal con qué lo pega?? Se puede bruñir??
Gracias desde España 🤗🇪🇦

I always thought that gilding metal leaves will always have some texture...glad I was shown differently!
I just wish that this had some instructions.
This was awesome pro work with Gold.
A layman would never guess that beneath gilding lies wood. Exquisite work!
Absolutely stunning work.

Stunning. Very gratifying to watch - thank you ♥
All I can say is very beautiful, congrats Sir
Lovely work.
Gorgeous 😊
Unreal! That looks so accurate!
Gourgeous work. Love Gold Leaf...:-)
I'm not a big fan of this style of furniture, but that was very well done. I am impressed.
She only did it briefly, but it looks like she ran the brush through her hair to put static on the brush. Nice trick for the DIYers.
I was wondering how the brush was picking up the pieces and saw her do that but never put that together. Thank you for pointing that out.
Vary informative, you are a true artisan.
Amazing work!!!
Amazing - you could never tell the difference between the two
Esto es arte, en verdad es de admirar la belleza con que se hace esto, me gustaría aprender, saludos desde México y felicidades por tu bello trabajo.
She went full pro on us! Perfect!

it really does look better with a shellac and patina
Fantastic work ! Nice to see a fine example of real gilding. Was wondering what kind of solvents / or varnish finish you used for achieving the final patina to give it the antique look.
That is awesome!

This was so satisfying 😍❤

Please let me know!
I was wondering exactly the same thing. 12yrs later...
Great work! What was the solution you used for the patina?
Beautiful !!!
Amazing craftsmanship by both wood carver and gilder! What would all of that gold leaf cost for that piece of furniture?
how do u sand such carving to smooth finish
although this is expert, gilding was justly critisized when it is used excessively it hides the beautiful wood. A gold surface is a harsh surface to the eye, wood is neutral and beautiful.
Världsklass!
If using silver imitation leaf will a agate burnisher get it to the same shine as real silver leaf?
Stunning as always! Did they use any brass or it was totally made of wood?
Gud, vad läckert!
The gilding leftovers get used to make Goldschlager.
l have a brass clock that lost its gold plate via chemical cleaning a mercury deposition. would guiding work as a cheaper replacement?
Mucket väker!
One again a bee to fly !! Yeah !!!!
I want to know the glue material
What glue are you using that you can apply the gold right away???????????????
ًwhat kind of glue do you use?
Hello, great vids! I have been looking at charbonnel as a glue but Im not sure whether it will stick on my plastic i want to be shiny golden. Will it stick?
Shouldn't put distressed look on top. It looked so beautiful without it on.
BELLISIMO,BRAVO

What are you using to burnish the gild? What can I use in its place to get the same effect?
The tool is called a Agate burnisher and I dont know what you could use instead...in the old days, I have been told, gilders sometimes used a wolf or bear tooth.
Did you use it on the sphere shape ? i am so sorry that it's not recorded :(
