The Art of 24K Architectural Gilding - Step by step
Every monumental gilding project begins long before the first sheet of gold is laid.
The process starts with meticulous surface preparation, followed by professional priming, multiple thin coats of the renowned Kölner Instacoll System, and precise activation before the gold can finally be applied.
Only then does the transformation begin.
Each sheet of genuine 24K Double Gold is laid by hand, carefully overlapped, and gently polished to create one seamless, brilliant surface that will endure the elements while reflecting the beauty of God’s creation.
This project for St. Luke Serbian Orthodox Church in Austin, Texas is a privilege and an honor. Every stage is performed with patience, precision, and respect for one of the world’s oldest and most beautiful artistic traditions.
