In this stencil tutorial we share how easy it is to create a verre églomisé finish on glass using our Clear Royal Stencil Size and Stencils from Royal Design Studio. Verre églomisé is a French term that literally translates to "glass gilded" and refers to the process where the reverse side of glass is gilded with gold or other metal leaf. Our Clear Royal Stencil Size, with its gel-like formula is designed to make this technique easy to achieve with any of the stencils from Royal Design Studio. Read on to find out how to recreate this elegant look on glass tabletops, or for glass cabinet doors and even framed art pieces.

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
I love this! How can I apply a stencil and paint it and then paint the rest of the table another color? Do I leave the stencil in place until the paint dries and then paint the rest in another color?
Hi the glue you are using seems to be in stick form. What is it please ?
Thanks for the inspiration !!
Can this method be use to make a radio dial? I have a Majestic radio dial made of glass that was broken during shipping. or can you recommend someone to copy it ?
