Gilding with Gold is the most coveted metal art in the world. Human cultures and civilizations back in different eras couldn’t go without admiring and revering this yellow metal. It reflects heat and lowers energy costs and carbon emissions too if used in architecture gold leafing gilding. The presence of gold (gilding) is also embedded in religious and cultural practices observed in India. Gold is a symbol of reverence and devotion to the divine being – God. Therefore, idols of worship are made of pure 24k gold or adorned with gold jewelry. Walls and ceilings of places of worship were covered in lavish works of gold this artform was Gold Leaf Gilding. Religious books and stories are resplendent with gold.


Temples with Gold Gilding Artwork prove that ancient Indian architecture is the epitome of the finest structural design and technical advancement.


India is a country dotted and gifted with shrines endowed with gold (Gilding) and precious jewels, along with land gifted by devotees. The list includes Kerala's Padmanabhaswamy Temple, the Vaishno Devi Temple in Kashmir, Vellore Golden Temple Tamilnadu, Kashi Vishwanath Temple Varanasi, as well as the Golden Temple in Amritsar, Punjab, crowned with a gold leaf gilding and religious texts, calligraphy studded with diamonds and other precious stones.


Real 24k Gold Leafing (Gilding) coating on metals like Copper, Brass or silver, etc. with heat and mercury process, while gold leafing on non-metal surfaces like wood, plaster of Paris, Glass, MDF, Marble & Granite, etc. we do with a chemical process. In both ways we keep special concentration on the outcome, finish, quality, and glow. To keep our work durable and weatherproof, we use high and best quality gilding material products, especially for limitation coating, once our work is complete.
