What a superb artisan! Very inspiring! Thanks so much for educating, sharing, and moving Gold Leafing forward!
Every little step of this just got better and better. I'm in awe!😍
that varnish blend trick is really something!
I watched you do this 3 times...I think I'll go and have a coronary now. Still cannot figure the entire process. It is exemplary work! I just finished a 'circus themed' clock I carved for someone and after it was painted they wanted gilding done on certain areas. The concave tapered cylinder spiral made me go pretty crazy. Fortunately it was made to look 100 years old, which was forgiving.
LOL You made me laugh with the coronary comment! I felt the same way! What a genius!! I just started gilding a few small antiques and I'm total crap at at it! This was music to my eyes!!
This was such a joy to witness, from very start to very finish!
You are an artistic genius!! These amazing crafts are being lost to time. Thank you for keeping
Wow, what incredible work and skill! I could watch this on repeat!
My mind is blown. Just gorgeous.
Beautiful! You have made a true piece of art!

I know how hard this is, so it's cool to see such a great result!
This video is a work of art
Gorgeous, excellent!
Best piece I've seen so far wow

I just stumbled onto a video of this and I have never been more inspired to try something than I am now. I've done research and found this video.
This is, by far, the most underrated craft I have seen. What a beautiful talent.
Any help you can provide about supplies would be greatly appreciated!
Wow great job!!! Precise and intelligent 🤓😳😲👍🧠
Very nice work👍🏻
Stunning 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is amazing!!!🙌
thank you!!
@@ephemerafonts9852 love your traditional work! I was curious to know the name of the tool you used as a gilders tip. It looks like a stamp?
brilliant
Amazing work!! I have been gilding picture frames for almost ten years and have so many questions?!?!
Which cleaner are you using for the excess gold leaf ?
Where do you get that clear transfer film for the vinyl? When I order clear I get stuff that is really cloudy and makes it really hard to get accurate placement on my glass.
What is the first quimic do you use on de glass?
When removing the excess leaf what is the paste you remove with?
Nice job , what is that paste you used to clean up the extra gold leaves ، please advice ? Thank you very much
Pierre d argent, Bon ami, or Gilders gold leaf glass soap
你好，你可以告诉我你用什么擦掉多余的金箔
What is the paste used to rub the gold off called?
What color did you back up the Mother Of Pearl inserts with ,if you don't mind sharing?
Thanks
I back up with black color.
Hi, I really like your video. What do you use to etch the glass? Can you explain that to me and tell me how it works? I would like to create something for my wife because her mother passed away. It should be a keepsake in her memory.
Heya there i love your work
Can i ask something, what materials for acid etching process?
Hydrofluoric acid and mica chips
Does anyone know if it's possible to reverse Glass paint a glass ball ornament with just a tiny hole to insert your brush. I have noticed it's always on a flat surface with open back.
What was put on the glass to give that irregular effect in the very beginning of the video, after applying cut film?
How do you make the paste to etch?
Can you tell what the substance is that you are using in the 38th second of the video?
Hello, Great work it's marvelous ! A few questions:
-Does acrylic paint is ok for this work or is it a special paint ?
-The gelatine is specific for that application or is it possible to use gelatine for cooking ?
-How do you buy the hydrofluoric acid and mica chips ?
Thank you very much !
Saw you didn't get any answers to your questions, can't answer all of them but the paint is probably something like One Shot paint, an enamel paint with lots more pigment than regular paint. Acrylic paint isn't flowing as nicely and is also water-soluble, so don't think it will do any good for the project.
The gelatine is the same, using a capsule in 200ml distilled water is just an easy way of having the right amount. Is able to use a chip of cooking gelatine as well. As long as it is pure.
The last two questions I can't help you with. But when you want to get more into guilding, I would advise you to look on google for A.S. Handover. They are one of the last Mohicans that survived the booming of vinyl and supply everything you'll need. Helped me a lot as well.
As mentioned by Jaap, go with enamel paint - one shot have great coverage. With acrylic being water based, it doesnt react well to the water being added when gilding.
You can use regular gelation cooking sheets, too. 4 x diamonds per 1/2 pint distilled water.
Acid is very hard to get hold of (in the UK at least!) give 'Dammar Embossing' a google, I think AS Handover have done some tutorials on that. It gives you a similar effect, but without the need of acid!
Also, check out Happy Gilder on youtube, hes get some ace videos.
Hi there. I've watched a tone of videos on this now. Really keen to give it a go, but one thing I have never found explained is the process of creating the stencil? Can anybody point me in the right direction?
Cricut.
Woaw! You are talented ! Maybe or maybe not, you would like to join the Happy Gilder's Facebook group . I'm sur you'd bring great knowledge or amazing photos.
Love your work!
Thank you for the info! I just joined the Happy Gilder facebook group :)
What is that pill looking thing you put on the distilled water?
Gelatine
So you apply size let dry and then gelatin water mix right before leaf?
for water gilding (to get the mirrored effect) - the gelatine water *is* the size. make sure your glass is super clean, whack on the gelatine water, then apply gold leaf straight away.
Om kalo etching kacanya pake cairan apa, dan bisa dapetin di mana? Terima kasih.
Screenprinting ink?
wow
where did you learned all that stuff of things?
How long has that. square device you lay the gold been around a "thorn tip" I am retired after 50 years specializing in Glass Gold Leaf office and
speciality gold work & "freehand pinstriping.. I used a standard 3"-4" guilding tip and I have naturally oily skin on forehead I would charge my tip brush with. If you have information on how long the thorn tip has been in use I'm very curious as this is first time I've seen it in this & another CZcams gold leaf video. Kindly reply here as I don't think it wise to give my gmail indirizzo/address out.

You are a real Master!! Hope you don't mind me asking you what kind of glue you use to applicate the abalone parts?
Hiya - its likely One Shot Clear Speed Dry UV Gloss Acrylic. Pop a bit of that down, then press in the abalone. once the abalone is down/dried, its worth whacking another layer of clear over it, too. Especially if you're going to back it up with a colour. This helps stop any colour paint seeping through.
I wish just one of these videos would actually explain the process.
And a explaining of the steps and time frame??
What was the paste used on stencil that made the texture? So new into this and so dumb fucked i am feeling
Water or alcohol?
what is that liquid your using and that pill?
it's distilled water
@@ephemerafonts9852 ok
what is it?
You know how sometimes, when you get angry, you want to throw your phone across the room, wave your hands over your head, and scream? This video makes me want to do those things…but in a good way, somehow? It’s a very weird emotion.
Audio, please.
ohhhh i beggggg of you to speak and tell us the process.. please, please, please, please!! what do you use as size?
One gelatine pill capsule (seperated) mixed with about 250ml distilled water
please speak or put text a srhis is fab
No, don’t tell us what’s going on, just ensure there’s lots of superfluous noise and no information whatsoever 🙄
not much help without any verbal documentry
EXACTLY, its look how SPECIAL my SKILL is , now go FIGURE it out YOURSELF ,
NICE ART👍 , BUT HELPING OTHER ARTISTS A BIG👎
Better make a real how to , ( you owe us that)
Duh, no verbal info….makes this useless narcissistic crap……
useless without telling watcher what your doing, and what your using ( wouldnt hurt to say where to get it either )
Now why wouldn’t you explain the technique or materials? How annoying.
He didn't explain anything
