Gold Leaf 23.5 KT Medium Deep Gold Shade Book of 25 Leaves

Gold Leaf 23.5 KT in a medium deep gold shade, supplied in a book of 25 leaves each measuring 3-1/4" square. This is loose gold leaf — as opposed to transfer gold leaf used for outdoor applications — meaning the leaves will easily release from the tissue paper on which they are packed. One book provides enough gold leaf to cover 1-1/2 square feet of surface area.

At approximately 0.1 micron thick, gold leaf is dramatically thinner than gold foil. For reference, gold foil is approximately 25 times thicker than gold leaf, making gold foil approximately 2.5 microns thick. Both gold leaf and gold foil can vary in thickness, and precise measurement requires specialized scientific equipment.
