"GOLD LEAFING IS NOT ABOUT GOLD IT IS ABOUT ART & INNOVATIONS."
TGLS / Shehzad Khan
Finest Gold Leafing Artist in Mumbai India
Mr. Shehzad Khan - CEO The Gold Leafing Studio |
The Mastermind Shehzad Khan, was all set to become a commercial pilot. But destiny had his future written in gold. Struck with triple jaundice attack, he realized something was holding him back. He then heard the call of his forefathers from above and decided that his future was in gold leafing, the art that runs into his blood. At the age of 15, he decided to take Pink City international his father company then to different heights. Therefore, he started with his research on interiors and furniture. He graduated in Interior Designing.
After an extensive study about interiors and furniture, he tried convincing stalwarts of architecture to use goldleafing in their designs. But the very idea of using gold on the interiors was considered gaudy and jazzy and therefore the proposal was declined. It took a lot from Shehzad to convince architects. His perseverance and hard work finally paid off with bagging the assignment of gilding Cartier showroom in Oberoi, Mumbaii in 1995 with a German architect which was followed by Orchid Hotels, Mumbaii in 1996 and Taj Mahal, Mumbai.
