We offer a selection of gram weights to match different project demands and gilding styles. Gram weight is defined as the weight of 1,000 standard 3 3/8" square leaves and is best understood as a measure of leaf density rather than thickness. Each leaf is beaten to an ultra-thin standard of approximately 0.5 microns.

Loose Gold — Loose 13kt White Gold leaf is interleaved between sheets of thin, lightly rouged paper, allowing you to lift one leaf at a time without disturbing the rest of the book. Loose leaf is traditionally handled with a gilder’s tip (a flat natural-hair brush) for precise placement, clean overlap control, and minimal waste—especially on carved detail, contours, and smaller repairs.

Patent Gold (Transfer Leaf) — 13kt White Patent Gold leaf, also called transfer leaf, is mounted to a special tissue paper using a pressure process. Each leaf-and-tissue unit is interleaved with thin rouged paper, so you can remove single sheets cleanly and consistently. Transfer leaf provides added control, making it ideal for larger areas, straight runs, smooth substrates, and workflows where easier handling and predictable placement are preferred.
