Your home needs gold leaf house numbers
We make gold leaf house numbers by hand, in 23 karat gold, on glass transoms in Washington, DC. Glass gilding is our specialty, and years of practice at our shop and on site have perfected our craft. Among our many gold leaf projects in DC are the corporate offices of Pepco and The Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. In addition, we restored the historical mail coach on display at USPS headquarters, and we assisted the Society of Gilders with gold leaf restoration at the Marine Corps Memorial on the Mall in DC. Also, we have gilded restaurants, shop and boutique windows, and the transoms of private homes all over the city, in Northern Virginia, Annapolis, and Baltimore. So give us a call or send us a message, and we will get your glass gilding project started right away. Our shop is in Edgewater, Maryland.

Decorate your home with gold leaf house numbers
Certainly, nothing looks as lovely as gold leaf house numbers. We design and install them by hand, using only traditional methods and materials. First, we help the owner choose a font that works well with gold leaf, since the application process has some limitations. To do this, we send you a portfolio of historically and artistically appropriate fonts. Next, we provide a drawing with measurements and give you the option of an outline with shadow. In this case, the owner decided to stick with a simple outline. Finally, we schedule your installation at a time that suits you. In short, the job is quick and clean. We love glass gilding and working with gold leaf. In fact, we are thrilled to be part of the gold leaf revival taking place in Washington DC and many other cities in the Northeast.
