The leaves in this booklet are worked for ten hours in five phases
to transform them from a gold ingot form to leaves tenths of
microns thick.This leaf booklet contains 25 gold leaves measuring
80x80mm.One book of gold will cover an area of 0.16m˛ without waste
or overlap. (The amount of waste can be determined by the gilder’s
own level of expertise and will depend on the complexity of the
surface being gilded.) The higher the gold content of a leaf the
more durable it will be. For outdoor work it is advisable to only
gild using leaf that 23ct or higher to avoid tarnishing.The gold
leaves that are contained in the transfer booklet are held on
tissue paper and are laid out in pages. This product is especially
suited for gilding ceilings or outdoor surfaces.Please note: metal
leaf pressed services cannot be returned or cancelled. Any
leaf (gold or metal, etc) which is transfer leaf (rather than
loose) can be pressed.
