The GildedPlanet.com is excited to partner with the Charles Douglas Gilding Studio to provide you with the highest quality, hands on training for the gilding arts.
Gold Leaf Restoration Part II is the continuation of the popular Introduction to Gold Leaf Restoration class where we explored a non-toxic silicone method of creating moulds for casting missing frame ornaments in hydrocal, gesso putty for filling holes and gouges, and traditional water gilding in 23k gold leaf.
Gold Leaf Restoration Part II continues the process of restoring gilded frames which can also be applied to gilded furniture and other wooden objects. The focus is gesso consolidation for stabilizing loose gilded gesso with such binders as rabbit skin glue, isinglass, fish glue, and discussion of modern consolidating agents.
The use of gesso putty will be shown for its benefits in rebuilding sections in areas of gesso loss all leading to ultimate ingilding with gold leaf, burnishing, rubbing, and toning to blend with an existing gilded surface.
