For centuries, gold and silver finishes have been prized for their timeless beauty and symbolism of abundance, power, and longevity. EverGreene carries this tradition into the modern era, restoring and creating gilded finishes for state capitols, sacred spaces, sculptures, lobbies, and national landmarks.
Through time-honored and innovative techniques, superior materials, and the world-class craftsmanship, we deliver impressive finishes of enduring strength and beauty. Finished appearances can range from highly polished to matte, and can involve decorative glazes or patinas. In addition, specialty coatings can add a layer of protection and prevent tarnishing.
