At Art Gilding, we are always thrilled to see our craft come to life in real-world projects. One of our most exciting recent collaborations was a prestigious commission for Chanel, now on display across major cities in Australia.
This project was a unique opportunity for our talented Master Gilding Course students – Diala, Corinne and Richard – to gain hands-on experience working on high-profile designs, combining traditional gilding techniques with the exacting standards of a world-renowned brand.
Locations You Can Visit
In Sydney, the gilded pieces are proudly featured at:
- Chanel Market Street
- Chanel Castlereagh Street
- Chanel Bondi
These installations showcase the elegance and precision that gilding brings to luxury interiors, capturing light and detail in ways that only true craftsmanship can achieve.
The Art of Collaboration
The gilding work was carried out at the premises of MNR in Punchbowl in great co-operation with the Project Manager Heather Snodgrass-Brine.
We are also grateful to our three dedicated Master Gilding Course students who worked tirelessly on this project. Their skill and creativity were essential to bringing this vision to life. Beyond the experience, they were also well-compensated for their contribution—a rewarding fusion of learning and professional work.
Why Gilding Matters
Gilding is more than decoration; it’s a statement of craftsmanship, attention to detail, and artistry. Projects like the Chanel commission allow us to share this timeless art with a broader audience, demonstrating how traditional techniques can elevate modern luxury spaces.
