Gold leaf designs of the past influencing our sign
designs of today
Gold leaf and gilding has been used for centuries by
many civilizations and in all art forms. It can be
found on Egyptian tombs and sarcophaguses, in
baroque architecture and interior design, or on 20th
century mirrored advertisements and the windows
of classy store fronts, high-profile businesses, and
banks. It adorns national statues and the facades of
great public buildings in countries all over the world;
it will forever be a sign of status, achievement, and
quality wherever it’s found.
Gold leaf used in sign design or hand lettering gives
a sense of style, grandeur, and richness. It will add
that extra quality you need to stand out above the
rest. We take incredible pride in our use and quality
of gold leaf applications at Oldham Signs, so you
can take pride in the sign designs we create for you.
Gold leaf sign design techniques
There are many techniques that can be used to
create the right effect with gold leaf. The process of
applying it is called ‘gold leafing’ or, to some,
‘gilding’. Gold leaf itself is very thinly hammered
sheets. It’s usually applied to the surface for
lettering or sign design with soft brushes and gentle
layering skills, adhering it to the chosen surface to
create the desired finished burnished effect.
There are many traditional methods that have been
used for hundreds of years. One of the oldest and
hardest is water gilding, a method which has gone
virtually unchanged and is still done by hand to this
day.
In today’s modern world, many sign designers and
artists painting on canvas choose to use gold in its
powder form to create the desired gilded look - it
can also be a slightly cheaper alternative, but still
high quality and gives grade ‘A’ visual effects.
