London Gilding at O. F. Wilson

I've restored furniture for Peter Jackson at O. F. Wilson for many years. He has a great eye and his shop is full of treasures. It's often very difficult for me to hand back pieces after I've worked on them because he has such exquisite taste and I want to keep them all. This video from Luxetv shows a small selection of his extraordinary stock, and I'm in it demonstrating how to water-gild. I'm better at gilding than I am talking, so just ignore what I'm saying and watch what I do!
