Water gilding on glass is a slow process, and it is worth the wait. We rendered these beautiful gold leaf logos at the old location of Shinola, a small specialty shop in Washington, DC. Please note that Shinola has since moved to a new place down the street. We did not letter the windows at the new store, so the work there is not ours.
Water gilding on glass in Adams Morgan
You can find this unique shop in the popular neighborhood of Adams Morgan. Designs & Signs, based in Edgewater, Maryland, has provided gold leaf signs and services for three different businesses on this street. If you need glass gilding for your home or business, we would be glad to give you a quote.
Perfect water gilding on glass requires patience
Brendon Brandon takes his time polishing the gold leaf. There is no seamless way to patch gold leaf. If you make a mistake, even one small scratch on the back of the leaf, the entire logo must be removed and redone from the start. Visit the Shinola website to see the brand.
Gold leaf sparkles and draws attention to your store
Any boutique or specialty shop in DC needs a gold leaf logo to stand out. It accentuates your brand and gives it an air of luxury and quality that Avery vinyl lettering cannot convey. Gold leaf adds punch and sparkle to your shop windows. As a result, pedestrians will notice your new store and stop in to check it out because you have a professional, classy logo out front. We love to practice water gilding on glass, so we look forward to working with you on your next gold leaf sign.
