Noris Blattgold Loose Copper Leaf Gilding

Noris Blattgold Loose Copper Leaf Gilding

SKU: 517-130

Genuine bronze metal beaten incredibly finely to form gossamer thin sheets for gilding. This leaf is supplied as loose leaf with each leaf in the booklet sitting loosely between thin rouged paper sheets. Loose gold leaf is incredibly delicate and is too fine to be handled by hand, when working with loose leaf you must make use of a gilders tip in order to pick up the gold.

With bronze leaf being so thin, its thickness is measured as the weight of the metal per thousand leaves. The standard gold leaf we supply is around 13 grams of metal per thousand leaves, and this is suitable for all gilding tasks. However, heavier weight leaves will give more lustrous and colourful finishes and will weather for longer outdoors but are more expensive due to the increased amount of gold. We offer a variety of weights to suit all projects and budgets.

Our bronze leaf is available in booklet of 25 leaves, standard booklet size is 140 x 140mm.

Bronze usually will not tarnish in most interior decorative applications. If the surface is to be handled or touched, then it will need protection. We recommend sealing it with a high-quality acrylic sealer.
