This documentary should be on prime time TV. So incredibly impressive, what a beautiful work of art!
This documentary ought to be shown in schools to inspire the next generation to pick up such trade
I don't understand how this has no million views yet!!!
You simply can not, NOT be in total awe of this mans work. It is truly nothing less than absolutely amazing!
A remarkable film of a remarkable man and remarkable crafts.
That's just incredible. This kind of art should also be in the The Met, The Tate, etc.
One of the most beautiful things I ever seen !!!
A real masterpiece 🤩
My god. I’ve just witnessed a true artisan and craftsman create something utterly extraordinary. I was almost tearful as it was lifted into place on the wall, I really felt the countless hours of impossibly intricate work coming to fruition. A glorious, glorious piece of work and a wonderfully made film documenting it.
My god man it’s a masterpiece. That’s as beautiful and impressive in skill as anything I’ve ever seen. Standing ovation.
I'm totally astonished with this amazing film that resumes how an incredible work of art comes to life. Great!!
I can't really explain why but I'm fighting back tears after watching this.
Dave creates such incredibly beautiful glass artwork, I am so envious of his skill and craftsmanship.
Another great film too.
Obviously I'm now a haircut at L&B just so I can get to see the piece up close!
same here, such beautiful artwork, I would like to see more like this.
Been in the sign business for 32 years and I have only seen this type of work done a few times I can tell you it's like looking back in time when things were made to be beautiful even the smallest most insignificant items were made to be beautiful. I started hand lettering 3 decades ago and haven't picked up a brush in maybe 20 years a few days ago I got an order for a hand done sign and I can't wait to put paint to brush.
I cry as well
Ridiculously beautiful, speechless.
Astonishing art and craftsmanship - restores my faith in the human race
Wow!!
What a beautiful documentary...….Absolutely perfectly composed from the narration right down to the music and the brief ASMR moments in-between...…this truly captures the art and passion with which David crafted this beautiful piece.
Just stunning!
I’ve just spent 4 days with Dave on his course. An amazing man with such great skills. I’m going to buy the online course too. Best 4 days of my life. Thanks Dave
Captivating, absolutely amazing. The end had me in tears. This is the best video on RUclips.
David Smith is my idol!
A TRUE MASTER ! incredible ...
This is absolutely AMAZING!!!
WOW!
Fantastic,thank you !
Magnificent
What a magnificent piece of art that embodies the highest levels of craftsmanship! Just incredible 😍
Holy crap! You, sir are a real artist!
beautiful film!
This video and the item prodeced are stunning! I must note that the wood lathe process depicted was period-accurate, including the absence of safety glasses for the craftsman.
Simply Stunning.
Stunning! Thank you for sharing your gift and mentoring others to follow in your footsteps.
Truly incredible!
Simply amazing. Thank you.
Great Job, Master👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
What I wouldn't do to just spend a day watching you work your incredible artistic magic. This is a breath-taking art form that I fear may vanish without craftsman like yourself and a small handful who refuse to let this unique skill slip into the past forever. You are truly a master craftsman and artistic genius, it's an honour to have had a mere glimpse into your world and the pain-staking process it takes to create your masterpieces. Please keep creating and passing on this knowledge to the next generation. I'm embarrassed to say that I got misty-eyed witnessing this awe-inspiring piece of timeless art come to life, which echoes the unparalleled elegance, class and opulence of a distant, bygone Golden Age era which I find myself often longing for and even mourning, as if I had actually lived to see the splendours with my own eyes. A time when the standards were so much higher and such artistic beauty was almost common place, as opposed to a breath-taking rarity in a classless, disposable, fast food world that has lost so much of its charm and artistic integrity. I think I was born at least a century or so too late.
Bless you and all you do!!
Warmest wishes,
LC
Just insane amount of skill involved ,your a true master of your craft David
Amazing! Congratulations with this beautiful documentary. This is worth watching every second and it is a delight to see all the craftsmanship involved from both of you. Thank you.
Loved it loved it .
Amazing work ! I really love the art of this era (1870-1900). You make incredible masterpieces !
A most wonderful & tasteful creation showcasing an exquisite work of art by the best in the business, & how lucky for Ludlow & Blunt to even find & engage David A. Smith..& his fellow artistes .Thankyou for a lovely film..
That was so beautifully done. The documentary & filmmaking was excellent. Nicely paced and interestingly shot.
But, that gilded mirror piece is just astounding. Such intricacy. I had to keep stopping the video to take it in.
Every part of it is exquisite.
I am a Signwriter - hand letterer of old. So I know what I'm looking at. We did a couple of gold leaf mirrors in trade school, back in the day.
I'd love to re-learn some of those techniques.
A thing of beauty forever.
One of the most beautiful movies i have ever seen in my entire life! I would love to go to the cinema and watch a two hour version of this.
I almost never leave comments. But this is absolutely Beautiful, what a amazing Gift you have. Please don’t stop sharing your gift.
Beautiful video, editing, voiceover..🔥🔥🔥
Well done Dave A.Smith you nailed it as you would say. Devoted 5 years to make a masterpiece that is one of a kind. You should be very proud of what you have done. I know when one of these days I will go see this in person and stare at it. Great video by all who made this possible, Danny Cooke.
Imagine the suspense involved by everyone during the transportation of that amazing work, sleepless nights for everyone. Brilliant work.

Absolutely magnificent and spectacular detailing in the designs !! And what a great filming presentation as well !!Thank You !
Speechlesssss! Thanks Mighty Dave to share your works! Big big Up mate! You desserve it!
My most humble respect to you Sir Mr David A Smith ....your name itself is a legendary and synonymous to the work and art you create . I've never seen anything like this , we have glass etching and metal etching back here in Bangalore , India, but this type of work and craftsmanship needs recognition, sir I hope you have an apprentice who is as dedicated as you , only hope I had a chance to learn this craft under you ...I would drop anything and everything to be at your disposal . Thank you very much Sir for sharing this video , you are a rare Gem .
I will say one thing about gilded signs and that is that when they are done correctly and with skill they are very beautiful works of art. I have been wondering if these techniques could be done using sheets of transparent aluminum.
Absolutely incredible, fantastic work from everyone involved.
A timeless piece. Really quite incredible!
It was aswome thank you for dis no words for it 🙏🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏
