Each book of silver leaf contains 25 leaves that measure 95mm x
95mm. 1 book of silver will cover an area of 0.23m² 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 resistant it will be to tarnishing - this means silver
leaf should always be protected from the atmosphere with a lacquer.
<br>Transfer Leaf is the same as loose leaf except that each
leaf has been pressed onto a lightly waxed sheet of tissue paper
which can be picked up, thus avoiding contact with the metal. The
tissue is then offered up to the sized area and rubbed from behind
so that the leaf transfers from the paper to the object to be
gilded.Please note: Manetti gold may be delivered in Handover card
to protect the sheets during transit.
