Wonderful little British Pathe film about the London Rock Making Candy Factory. I always wondered how the lettering at the ends was created into these crunchy tubes of Rock Candy.

This is my Online Glass Gilding course that took my daughter Lauren and myself two years to create. We wanted to create something special, something that taught the student all the processes and techniques of reverse glass gilding the correct way. Yes it’s an online workshop but with the way we filmed this course it’s very much like I’m with you guiding you through every step of the way creating all 12 beautiful glass gilded letters. Nothing is edited out of this 52 hour course and you can watch

A recent commission I have completed for a lovely client in Hong Kong. This piece was all handmade using traditional old skills ,turn of the century style gilding and etching processes. I Always love to design Art Nouveau typography as it captures beautiful romantic curves and natural forms. After all the Glue Chip teaching I have done this past few years online it was nice to create my own Glue Chipped embossed piece of artwork. Thank you for trusting me to make you a piece of gilded art @ppcdr

Just had a really good fun Goldleaf workshop teaching Signwriter and artist @tozersigns from Bristol. Thanks to @qestcraft in London Tozer was given a grant to come on this one to one glass gilding class. We were pretty much full on with long days of glass gilding processes creating 3 beautiful pink gilded letters. I now have a proper appreciation of this vibrant colour and in the right hands this colour really looks the part. We had a great time and learnt a lot of new processes. I hope you go

Some months ago, I posted this video about a commission I recently completed, and I wanted to share a little of the behind-the-scenes story with you. 🎬 The glass panels used in this project were 430mm x 1600mm 21mm laminated Starphire glass with 60mm bevels. Due to their low iron content, they provided a crystal clear finish. A large part of the design required Glue Chipping, which was a complicated process due to the size of the panels. 😅 To complicate matters, I was looking for a specific fe

Hand obscuring this brilliant cut glass panel to create privacy while still allowing light to pass through. Many Victorian establishments had this type of process on their pub windows and private houses. It’s a Victorian technique that is still used today in specialist glass shops. Combined with Silverstaining the end result can be very striking. #glass #handobscured #etched #frosted #creativeglass #glasssign #glasscrafts #glassinspiration #handmade #traditional #goldsign #pubglass #victorian |
