It all started when
After a decade and a half in the corporate grind, I stumbled upon the enchanting world of Gilding and Calligraphy.
Extensive training from world-renowned artists and a mentorship under one of the very few traditional illuminators in the world gave me the impetus to come up with ‘The Gilded Story,’ where I share my passion for Gilding and Calligraphy, making it accessible and personal to all.
