Expert Gilding & Gold Leaf Decoration
Fascinating appreciation to their precious character, gilding techniques allow countless applications on painted or sculptured designs.
Gilding: A timeless art for luxurious finishes
At Sammour Group, we specialize in gilding, the art of applying thin layers of gold, silver, or metallic leaf to surfaces to create a refined and luxurious finish. This age-old technique has been used for centuries to enhance architectural details, furniture, artwork, and decorative elements, bringing elegance and sophistication to any space. From classic interiors to contemporary designs, gilding adds a layer of richness that transforms ordinary surfaces into attractive focal points.
Where gilding enhances design:
- ● Architectural elements: Ceilings, columns, domes, and cornices
- ● Furniture & frames: Dressers, tables, mirrors, and picture frames
- ● Artwork & custom pieces: Sculptures, murals, and intricate detailing
- ● Commercial spaces: Luxury retail stores and hotels
Each application is carried out with precision, guaranteeing the perfect fusion of artistry and technical execution.
The beauty & versatility of gilding
1. Improves interiors with a luxurious touch
Gilding is often associated with royal palaces, grand hotels, and historic landmarks, but it is just as effective in modern spaces. Applied to ceilings, moldings, frames, and furniture, it enhances interiors with a subtle shimmer or a bold, opulent statement.
2. Works on a variety of surfaces
This technique is adaptable to wood, plaster, glass, metal, and even textiles, making it a versatile solution for both decorative accents and full-scale applications.
3. Customizable for classic & modern designs
While traditional gold and silver leaf remain popular, gilding also includes antique, matte, and patina effects, allowing it to fit within both ornate and minimalist aesthetics. Whether creating a vintage, aged look or a sleek metallic finish, gilding can be tailored to match any vision.
4. Durable & long-lasting
Once applied, gilding resists tarnishing, fading, and wear, making it ideal for high-traffic areas, decorative ceilings, and fine detailing that need to maintain their luster over time.
