Illuminated Letters for Calligraphy Poems
Whichever calligraphy style you choose for your poem, we can begin the design with an illuminated letter for you.
Illuminated letters are painted in metallic gold or silver, onto a coloured background. The choice of background colour is entirely yours and we can incorporate colours to match the other illustrations on your commission, or even to match your wallpaper!
The commission above uses two illuminated letters, one for each verse. Our swirly border designs work especially well with illuminated letters.
We're also introducing gold leaf for our illuminated letters - this gives a wonderful shine. Please ask if you'd like real gold on your commission! There will be a small extra charge for gilding work.
