Description
Lay a true silver surface onto jewelry accents, mixed media, and studio finishes with loose leaf that releases from its tissue for precise placement.
This book holds 25 loose fine (pure) silver leaves, each measuring 3-3/8" x 3-3/8" (85 x 85 mm), and one book covers approximately 1-1/2 sq ft (about 0.14 m²). Loose leaf releases easily from its tissue backing for delicate placement; unlike transfer leaf, it is preferred for interior work, fine details, and surfaces not exposed to weather. Sold per book of 25 leaves.
Features
- Pure silver leaf for decorative gilding and embellishment
- Loose-leaf format for precise placement on delicate surfaces
- Each leaf measures 3-3/8" x 3-3/8" (85 x 85 mm)
- Each book covers approximately 1.5 sq ft (about 0.14 m²)

Notes
- Loose silver leaf lifts readily from the tissue; handle it with a gilder's tip or knife and minimize air currents during application.
- Use an adhesive appropriate to the substrate and burnish gently after laying.
- For Keum-boo applications, use dedicated Keum-boo gold foil. Loose silver leaf is not a substitute for traditional Keum-boo bonding.
- Transfer leaf, which is not included here, is generally preferred for outdoor or weather-exposed applications.
