Add a touch of glamour to your projects and a golden allure to your surfaces. 23.5ct Gold Leaf is a perfect product for interested beginners as well as skilled craftspeople.

The 23.5ct gold leaf is a blend of pure gold and small amounts of silver, giving it a radiant and lustrous finish that can be used on indoor and exterior projects without the risk of tarnishing. The metal is beaten into very thin sheets that are far finer than a human hair and due to this they take on the textures and finishes of many surface forms creating the appearance of solid gold. It's perfect for gilding surfaces with raised detail or carved relief as it will settle over them.

Whether you are looking to use gold leaf for elaborate gilding projects, crafting, signs, masonry gilding, exterior monuments, artwork or interior design projects, this leaf is perfectly suitable. With the right tools and techniques, you can transform practically any surface!

Due to the delicate nature of gold leaf, you cannot handle it directly, it will simply stick to your fingers and tear! When working with loose leaf you will need to buy added tools to work the leaf, including a Gilders Tip, a Gilders Cushion and a Gilders Knife which you will find in our Gilding and Restoration section of our website.

Unleash your creativity and make a statement with the brilliance of 23.5ct Gold Leaf – a true treasure for artisans of all levels.

With gold leaf being so thin, its thickness is normally given as the weight of the metal, per thousand leaves. A heavier weight leaf is thicker than a lighter one, and thicker leaves give more lustrous finish, and will weather for longer outdoors.

23.5ct Leaf will not tarnish in most applications. However, if the surface is to be handled or touched then it will need protection. We recommend sealing it with a high-quality sealer such as the Whitson's Universal Lacquer, you can view our range of sealers here.
