Gilded Ipads


I've been working for Laban Roomes of Gold Genie fame. He came to me for an artisan finish, and I think they look incredible. It's an exclusive for him, so I can't say how I've done it, but I've combined the best of antique gilding with something new I invented. I've given the gold a soft hand-beaten texture which looks especially lovely next to the paired down perfection of the ipad.

Shooooe


This is such a gorgeous thing I don't need to say a word about it. Rupert Sanderson. A VERY clever man.

Gold Shoes


I LOVE these shoes. They're for Rupert Sanderson and look wonderful. The wedge and pebble are gilded in 23 carat gold. The gold has a subtle crinkle in it that makes it look like a delicate skin. I think Rupert is a brilliant designer and as a friend of mine said when she saw them, well not exactly said, more like screamed; "Ohhhhh heirloom shoes". She's right!
