The Science & Artistry of Gold / Silver / Champagne Leafing
Precious leaf gilding is the crown jewel of MNayakArts. With four decades of royal lineage in Jaipur, our master artisans apply gossamer-thin sheets of 24K real gold leaf, champagne alloy, and genuine silver leaf over hand-prepared gesso foundations.
Every leaf is positioned with natural squirrel-hair tip brushes and burnished with natural agate stones to yield a deep, mirror-like celestial radiance that will not tarnish for over a century.
