Our team recently completed the gilding of moulded detailing on two ceilings in a heritage home in Exeter, NSW. We had great co-operation from Nick, the builder, and his team during the two weeks we worked on site.
We pre-gilded 370 linear metres in our studio which were sent to the work site before we started. Mouldings have been touched up on site where necessary and ready for the wallpaper hangers. Nick was very pleased with our work.
We were given the opportunity to stay on the estate in the beautiful Lake View cottage. After a hard day’s work, everybody enjoyed sitting in front of the open fireplace with a glass of mulled wine. Best working holiday ever! Our Master Gilding Course students enjoyed the paid hands-on experience.
We received a very special letter of appreciation from the owner:
I have returned to NSW after a long stint away with work. I visited our house in Exeter and I wanted to write to let you that the work you completed looks absolutely beautiful. It’s really quite breathtaking. Thank you sincerely for helping to restore our house to its former glory.
If it’s no trouble for you, can I ask that you please relay my personal and heartfelt appreciation to Karl and the whole team for their fantastic work. Their efforts are truly very much appreciated.
Best wishes,
Steve
