Art Restoration

Art Restora­tion: Most paint­ings brought to us for repair or restora­tion have a his­to­ry that is very per­son­al and sen­ti­men­tal.  We take great care through­out the restora­tion process, know­ing how much your art­work means to you and your fam­i­ly. Most oil paint­ings have had sev­er­al coats of var­nish applied over the years. This var­nish will dark­en over time and com­bine with decades of smoke and grime result­ing in a paint­ing that has become dark and obscured. Many paint­ings come to us that have been dam­aged by untrained per­sons attempt­ing to clean it. Our experts will painstak­ing­ly remove the old var­nish, patch any holes and paint any areas with dam­age or miss­ing paint. In most cas­es our restora­tion work can­not be detect­ed in the fin­ished paint­ing. A new coat of var­nish is applied to enhance and pro­tect your art for many more years of enjoy­ment. We are able to restore a vari­ety of art­works includ­ing oils and acrylics on can­vas or board, water­col­ors, etch­ings and oth­er paper art.

Frame Restora­tion: The repair and restora­tion of antique and con­tem­po­rary frames is a very spe­cial­ized skill that is an art form in itself.  Every frame has a sto­ry to tell. We have res­cued many beau­ti­ful frames that were on their way to the trash. A frame restora­tion may include repair­ing a bro­ken cor­ner or orna­ment or a com­plete frame rebuild­ing includ­ing rejoin­ing, cast­ing, carv­ing, sand­ing, gild­ing and fin­ish­ing. We do as much or as lit­tle as it will take to restore a frame that is per­fect for you.

Gold Leaf Gallery has a very artist friend­ly atmos­phere! They car­ry diverse work and have framed sev­er­al projects for me that need­ed a spe­cial touch. Con­tem­po­rary or tra­di­tion­al- they can help with your fram­ing or pur­chase of a piece of art!

Recent­ly I have had the plea­sure of work­ing with Traci and Deb­bie. They are two of the most pro­fes­sion­al busi­ness own­ers I have met. They are both extreme­ly pleas­ant and per­son­able. The suc­cess of GL Gallery reflects the wis­dom, expe­ri­ence, and exper­tise they have acquired from a long his­to­ry of work­ing in the art gallery/framing/customer ser­vice indus­try. I am proud to know them both; and I high­ly rec­om­mend them for your art and fram­ing needs!

To my review read­ers, please know that each and every review for my busi­ness here is authen­tic and gen­uine over the past decade since google began tak­ing reviews. Each review­er has either been a real cus­tomer or an actu­al patron who has vis­it­ed the gallery in per­son. Gold Leaf Gallery is cel­e­brat­ing 50 years of excep­tion­al cus­tom fram­ing busi­ness in Tyler and East Texas! We do not use a review com­pa­ny to post fake reviews; instead, we enjoy the hon­esty and integri­ty of our cus­tomers present and future.

They do an amaz­ing beau­ti­ful job on what­ev­er you need framed. I had jobs done by them when I lived in Tyler now we live in the DFW area and still pre­fer hav­ing all of my paint­ings framed at Gold Leaf in Tyler.

Gold Leaf Gallery did an excep­tion­al job on fram­ing my paint­ing. I would high­ly rec­om­mend them and will use them in the future. They are very pro­fes­sion­al and friend­ly in help­ing you cre­ate the per­fect pre­sen­ta­tion for your artwork.

I had a very par­tic­u­lar issue with some por­traits that are very impor­tant to me and I came into the store for a quote. I told the ladies I would think about it and they under­stood because of the size of the por­traits and the detail that would be involved. Most busi­ness­es would have stopped there, but their pas­sion for help­ing peo­ple and pre­serv­ing art came through when they gave me a rec­om­men­da­tion that did not involve their store. I was so impressed with their cus­tomer ser­vice, I went back to them and asked them to help me com­plete the project and they did an amaz­ing job. The ladies at Gold Leaf Art Gallery love what they do and it shows in how they treat peo­ple. High­ly rec­om­mend!! — 5 star Service!

They repaired a fam­i­ly pic­ture that had been dam­aged in a move. They replaced the bub­ble glass that had been bro­ken and repaired 2 cracks in the pho­to. They did a excel­lent job and it went way above my expec­tions. I will def­i­nite­ly bring the oth­er pho­tos in when pos­si­ble. They also replaced the back­ing on the back of the pho­to. Total pro­fes­sion­al job. Could not be more pleased. Rec­om­mend them as a top­notch busi­ness for ur needs.

What are some of the most car­ing, pro­fes­sion­al and tal­ent dri­ven words you can think of? That would not be enough to describe Tra­cy, Deb­bie and Gold Leaf Gallery. They are tru­ly the best in the indus­try (and I don’t mean just Tyler).If you want some­one to trust with your price­less paint­ings, pho­tographs and real­ly-any­thing, you can trust these things with them.If you can dream of it framed-they can make your dreams come true! ❤️ Per­fec­tion all the way.

I’ve had them frame every­thing from con­vert posters and fin­ger paint­ings to oil paint­ings and every time it turns out fan­tas­tic. They take the time to talk with me and fig­ure out the per­fect com­bi­na­tion of frame and back­ing and glass to work with my art in the space it will hang and with­in my bud­get. They even set me up with and extreme­ly tal­ent­ed guy to come hang some tricky art­work in my home. There is no one else in tyler that will take bet­ter care of your fram­ing needs. I can’t rec­om­mend them high­ly enough.

Gold leaf is the most under­rat­ed Art Deal­ing, Art Fram­ing and Art Restora­tion busi­ness in EAST TEXAS.I’ve per­son­al­ly used the incred­i­ble team at Gold Leaf on more than sev­er­al occa­sions, they have absolute­ly exceed­ed expec­ta­tions every time.I still can’t fath­om why peo­ple would go to Dal­las or even far­ther when their is Top Tier tal­ent, Pro­fes­sion­al Crafts­man­ship, Knowl­edge­able, Gen­uine Own­ers and Remark­able Results. Their com­mit­ment to Qual­i­ty and match­ing your vision with their knowl­edge leads to Per­fec­tion, well as close as you can get to it every time.I’ve even tak­en a very expen­sive paint­ing that was dam­aged to them and with­in two months, had a gor­geous, per­son­al­ly in my opin­ion bet­ter than before restored and repaired painting.I can’t share any­more good about Gold Leaf in this post for fear of it seem­ing to good to be true… well… it isn’t.Go see for your­self and let the results and your delight speak for itself.Highly Recommend.

Ive known these girls for a long time and I’m hear to say there is nobody in the busi­ness in E.Texas that can com­pare to their qual­i­ty and pro­fes­sion­al­ism. Tru­ly the best in E. Texas. Their bright and cheer­ful atti­tude and smile make it an utter joy to walk in the shop. The GLG has been an estab­lished busi­ness in Tyler since 1975 with an excel­lent 5star cus­tomer sat­is­fac­tion rat­ing. Thx for the many years of great work girls. Yours Tru­ly T. L.

Deb­bie & Traci are extreme­ly tal­ent­ed! Their skill ele­vates every piece that they frame. Traci is able to accom­mo­date a vari­ety of styles. There is a mas­sive dif­fer­ence between craft store fram­ing and Gold Leaf fram­ing, it’s worth it!

These two sis­ters are the most pro­fes­sion­al, tal­ent­ed women in this indus­try. I don’t think there is any­thing that Deb­bie can­not do, from fram­ing, cal­lig­ra­phy and shad­ow box­ing! I will always cher­ish the mem­o­ry of my daugh­ter open­ing up her Christ­mas present to her favorite paint­ing that was done by Gold Leaf Gallery. They are like part of the fam­i­ly, thanks again!

As a pic­ture framer myself for 20 years work­ing for a very large whole­sale shop in Mil­wau­kee, Wis­con­sin, I know all of the ins and outs of qual­i­ty fram­ing. Are largest client was Mer­rill Chase Gal­leries out of Chica­go. We framed art for many gal­leries across the Mid­west on a week­ly basis and we had excep­tion­al­ly high stan­dards. Qual­i­ty pic­ture fram­ing has so many vari­ables. Types of mats, glass, back­ing, mat reveal, how a piece is hinged or mount­ed. A piece that is framed cor­rect­ly will last a very long time. I have come to know the own­ers at Gold Leaf since I moved to Tyler in 2009 and have used them for some of my own pieces and have seen the same qual­i­ty I myself am accus­tomed to. I will accept no less since this is what I myself pro­vid­ed all those years in Mil­wau­kee. Aside from their qual­i­ty work, it has always been a plea­sure work­ing with Traci and her sis­ter Deb­o­rah. I con­tin­ue to work with them often and will con­tin­ue. I def­i­nite­ly rec­om­mend them for your fram­ing. They have also been doing it a long time, and when it comes to fram­ing, you def­i­nite­ly want some­one with expe­ri­ence hand­ing your treasures.
