Authentic Quality really matters to us.
Gratitude: We commemorate London’s great lettering
We have built a reputation for over 40 years of delivering fantastic, designer lettering. We craft large or small scale sign painting and design projects, using innovative design and layout techniques to launch your sign.
Always mindful of the incredible lettering of late signmasters across this city, and in particular Richard Apps, as we work our way around town year after year Making London Beautiful.

Replacing this cracked window with one exactly the same was a gilding task that took the best of us.
Re-installation was very smooth and all wrapped up in 4 days.



The Fred Perry flagship store, Covent Garden.
We designed and installed all the gold leaf work at Henrietta Street Covent Garden. Below is our flagship gilding for the famous Chossing Keeping of Covent Garden.




WE LOVE CORNER SHOPS, HOUSES AND MUSEUM PIECES

GOLD: FIT FOR ALL… AND THE FINEST DESIGNER CONTEXTS

Interior design finishes are also part of what we do at NGS. this mirror needed rebuilding and after 3 days it still looked 200 years old but much more loved.
