Transfer leaf is useful for gilding large surface areas, such as walls or a large piece of furniture.  It is very lightly adhered to a tissue making it possible to pick up and apply the leaf easily with the tissue uppermost.  

 

Choose from Gold, Silver and Copper. Stick the leaf on to a surface coated with Gold Size.  

 

Our transfer leaf metal is available in books of 25 sheets, enough to cover around 0.49 metres squared (5.27 feet squared). Each sheet is 5.5 inches x 5.5 inches (140mm x 140mm).

 

Imitation Gold leaf is sometimes referred to as ‘Dutch Gold’ and is made of brass. This metal will tarnish over time so apply a layer of Clear Wax over your gilded surface to protect it.

 

Imitation Silver leaf is made of aluminium. To make it look like vintage silver, apply a light coat of Clear and Dark Brown wax.

 

Copper leaf is made from copper which tarnishes, so apply a layer of Clear Wax over your gilded surface to protect it.
