More Than a Number — A Detail That Speaks for You

Timeless, Hand-Painted Numbers for Homes and Shopfronts Across N. Ireland and Beyond

Whether you’re looking for a house number or a gold-detailed sign for your front door or business entrance, you’re in the right place.

I create bespoke house numbers by hand — carefully painted on the glass above your door using time-honoured techniques, and finished in real gold. Whether you live in Belfast, Holywood, or anywhere across Northern Ireland, I bring character and quiet elegance to your entrance. This is a small detail that transforms your home — crafted just for you, with care.

Bespoke Hand-Painted Numbers with a touch of Gold for Homes and Businesses in Northern Ireland, Dublin & London

At Joha Muñe, I specialise in bespoke hand-painted house numbers that bring a personal and elegant touch to your home’s entrance. Every house number is carefully hand-painted and finished with genuine gold leaf that catches the light beautifully, adding a timeless luxury to your doorway.

While most of my commissions are for private homes, I also hand-paint numbers and names for boutiques, pubs, cafés, and offices looking to add a refined, traditional touch to their facade.

Whether you’re in Belfast or elsewhere in Northern Ireland, Dublin or London, I bring traditional craftsmanship right to your doorstep. I ensure your house number is not just functional but a statement of style and individuality — no vinyl stickers or mass-produced signs here, just authentic, artisan work tailored specifically for your home.

Every home is unique, which is why every house number I create is custom-designed to suit your style and the character of your property. From classic and understated to bold and eye-catching, I work closely with you to bring your vision to life.

Why Choose a Bespoke Gold Leaf Number for Your Home or Business?

When you commission a hand-painted number finished in genuine gold leaf, you’re not just marking your address — you’re making a statement.

Here’s why people across Northern Ireland, Dublin, and London are choosing my bespoke numbers for their homes, shopfronts, studios, and cafés:

    • Make an unforgettable first impression: Whether it’s welcoming guests to your home or catching the eye of a passerby, a gold-leaf number adds elegance and distinction to your entrance.
    • Crafted by hand: Each piece is painted by hand with attention to detail and care — this is traditional craftsmanship, not something printed or mass-produced.
    • Finished with genuine gold leaf: Gold brings a subtle, natural glow that is timeless, weather-resistant, and unlike anything synthetic. It’s this detail that gives my numbers their signature richness.
    • Perfect for homes – and just as stunning for shopfronts: I regularly create pieces for front doors, transom windows, boutiques, pubs, cafés, and creative workspaces that want a little something extra.
    • Tailored to your entrance and location: I adjust the size, style, and layout based on your space. I take into consideration the character of your home in order to create a design that matches.

Gilded House Number in Belfast

I came across Joha’s work on instagram just as we were looking to hire a traditional sign writer. The work involved was on an extremely high end residential property in Belgravia, it had to be perfect. At first I was a bit anxious to use someone I had never met or worked with before but Joha exceeded all expectations and completed the work within the agreed time frame and to the highest possible standard. We will not be looking anywhere else for traditional sign writers anymore.

"Thank you so much for bringing our vision to life. The real-leaf place cards turned out so well and we couldn't be happier. Some guests even took them home after the wedding as a souvenir or use them as a bookmark."

I contacted Joha for our cofee shop's fascia, logo and signages. I was very surprised how professional and efficient she was. Once she received the design brief and concept she got to work straight away. As client, I felt my ideas were taken on board and she really listened and was able to translate my ideas into reality.

I commissioned Jo to write out a poem in calligraphy, as a gift for a bride to be. I cannot fault her at all! She worked within a tight time frame, the writing was perfect and consistent throughout, and she advised on how to present the poem-framing it for me as well! I was delighted with the finished product-beautiful keepsake, professionally carried out!
