Water gilding, also called gilding on bole, consists of applying loose sheets of gold on a layer of mostly red clay (bole). The bole supplies a flexible surface that allows for polishing the gold with an agate burnisher thereby obtaining a brilliant and very smooth effect. In this video I used a yellow/orange clay from the "Koelner system".
I am a specialised painter decorator restorator based in the Netherlands.
