Gold Leaf Ceiling
Saturday, March 28, 2009
Gold leaf will transform a variety of surfaces into elegant and hearty painted design.. There are many different kinds of leaf, including silver leaf, bronze leaf and copper leaf, and they come in the form of tissue-thin sheets of metal.
For this project, I used a gold leaf, and brushed it on to the dining room ceiling surrounding the chandelier, and surrounded by custom moulding. The end result was a beautiful and elegant room with a warm and inviting feel.

Gorgeous work! In the photo, the gold is very rich and red, which is probably partly due to the red walls, but what carat gold did you use?
lapislazuli
I wonder if you would mind giving more details. How do you apply it, etc. I have a tiny powder room that I want to create a dramatic effect by painting the ceiling gold. The walls I plan to paint a beautiful royal blue (very deep, beautiful). I have never used gold leaf and wonder also if it is not too expensive…
My partner and I stumbled over here different web address and thought I should check things out. I like what I see so now i am following you. Look forward to finding out about your web page repeatedly.
