The Smith Tip Ref: 3000/7
The Smith Tip is a specially designed gilders tip for use in transferring loose leaf from it's backing paper to a glass surface. Some of the innovative features of this unique gilders tip are:

It's large size ( 3 1/4" x 3 1/2" ) fully covers the leaf, allowing for maximum control and stability of the leaf while transporting it.
The rigid back of the tip prevents the gold leaf from tearing while moving it.
The weighted handle makes picking the tip up easy.
The tip comes complete with Dave Smith's own written instructions for gilding onto glass.
