Metal Leaf Schaibin
Loose, irregular imitation metal leaf flakes for broken-leaf and textured gilding effects
Metal Leaf Schaibin consists of large, irregular pieces of loose imitation metal leaf, available in Aluminum (Silver-tone), Copper, and Imitation Gold. Ranging from 3.5" to 5" in size each. Designed for expressive, non-uniform finishes, schaibin is ideal for creating depth, movement, and organic metallic textures.
Unlike traditional square leaf, schaibin produces a distinctive broken-leaf appearance, making it a favorite among decorative artists, muralists, faux finishers, and mixed-media creators. It can be scattered, layered, or selectively placed to achieve subtle highlights or bold metallic effects.
Suitable for interior applications only, Metal Leaf Schaibin performs beautifully on a wide range of surfaces, including plaster, stone, canvas, paper, metal, and wood. It is commonly used in fine art, furniture finishes, wall treatments, decorative objects, and creative restoration work.
Coverage varies by application density. Approximate coverage:
60 g box: ~20 sq ft |
100 g box: ~35 sq ft |
1 kg box: ~350–400 sq ft
