The below examples are basic gold leaf window lettering technique options. The possibilities are endless! The Matte Center finish is similar to a Satin finish, the classic Burnished or 'Bright' finish has a gold mirror appearance which picks up reflections and gives the job movement. Combinations of different varieties of leaf such as 18k lemon gold, 16k pale gold, white gold, palladium and variegated leaf, mother of pearl or abalone inlays and glue chipping are all options to be considered.
