This is an Italian style Sgraffito frame. The Sgraffito technique used here was common in Italy during the 16th century. The frame is water gilded in 22k gold leaf. The frame is leafed in the corners and centers where the design will be. The panel is then painted over. The Sgraffito design is revealed by scratching off the paint. There is no gold pencil used. Other areas of the design are hand painted. Check us out on Instagram @cjframesnyc where you can see current pictures and videos of our work.

This is for the people wondering about the materials used here:The red paint is called "red bole" prepared with pigment red bole and animal skin glue and applied on the surface then filed to make it perfect even surface . This is a platform for the gold application. Then activate the surface(animal glue in it water based glue) with water then place the gold leaf on the wetted parts.Water evaporates and glue sticks onto gold. Also you can achieve higher degree of shine with red bole base, it allows burnishing as it gives mirror like finish (depends what kind of effect you desire).

@CJFRAMES 5 жыл бұрын

We don't use animal skin glue or rabbit skin glue. It's a gelatin glue. To apply the gold a water and alcohol mixture is used. It contains some glue as well but very little.

@CJFRAMES 5 жыл бұрын

We don't use animal skin glue. It's synthetic. The water contains some alcohol. That's important.

Very grateful to see how you add gold leaf. I've only used it a few times. Nice to see the skilled hand and brush flowing on the gold leaf sheet. I did see you using a pencil to draw / paint the design on but read above that, "no gold pencil is used". Can you advise what tool you were using?

@annedavis3340 4 жыл бұрын

Looks like it's a tool for inscribing, maybe a sharpened dowel or something similar. There is a layer of gold leaf, and above that a layer of matte paint that's some kinda terra cotta or caput mortem. They are scratching off the matte paint to reveal the gold under it. Like those scratch-off art projects that were popular in the 90's, but with gold under it.

Wow!!! What a gorgeous frame! At each step I kept thinking, 'Oh no! He's ruining it!' and then it just got better and better. A splendid piece of artwork as valuable as the art it frames. Couple of questions: 1. What is the red paint? Is this clay bole? 2. What is the pencil - wood or paper? 3. What did you use to antique it? It looked like muddy water. 4. Do you sell these products? Thank you for a very lovely video!!!

@CJFRAMES 5 жыл бұрын

The red paint is casein but it goes on top of a red clay bole. The pencil is wood. The wash indeed does look like muddy water. For this frame it’s mostly umber casein paint and water. Most of it is taken off with butchers wax. We don’t sell these products.

A few questions, the part you were scraping off already had gold leaf under it.. and bole on top of it(the pinkish hue colour?) what instrument are you using to scrape away your design with? What is the shiny stuff you put in at the end? Would you recommend a good beginners book? How I wish I could apprentice with this most beautiful art form. Thank you so much for sharing this. I look forward to hearing what you used. Thank you

@CJFRAMES 3 жыл бұрын

That's correct, the gold is under the parts that need to be scraped. That is not bole over the gold though. It's casein paint that's scraped off. Gesso and bole are under the gold. At the end butchers wax is applied. It's a clear natural paste wax. We often mix it with other things depending on the finish. There is no book that can help with this type of work. It takes years of practice to develop the skills and techniques you see in the video. The only way to learn is actually doing it.

Anything sharp can be used for the sgraffito. This is a special pencil with no lead. The spatter is used to simulate fly specs and aging.
