HOW TO GILD THE WOOD

GILDING CATALOGUE: HOW TO GILD THE WOOD? THE MOST PRECIOUS DETAILThe catalogue dedicated to wood gilding offers a range of products to embellish surfaces with different techniques and materials for gilding.
Over the centuries, gilding has evolved, starting from the artisan application of refined gold leaves up to the present day, in which it is possible to choose whether to apply an original leaf or whether to obtain always precious results with perfect imitations, also ranging from the silver leaf and copper leaf.
