Our 6.00 karat White Gold and White Patent Gold (Transfer Leaf) contain approximately 25% pure gold, offering a beautiful pale-gold tone with the handling performance you expect from professional leaf.
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 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 and minimal waste.
Patent Gold (Transfer Leaf) — 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, and situations where easier handling is preferred.
