The Gold Leaf Day event is held around August 9th every year. This year, we invited Ms. Sayuri Morio, a conservation and restoration specialist, as our lecturer. Participants experienced “Églomisé.”
Many readers of this magazine may not be familiar with the term or technique “Églomisé.” In short, it is a French gilding technique in which gold leaf is applied to glass and then part of it is carefully scratched away to create an image.
