Gold foil for Keum-Boo is a different product from standard gold leaf — it is thicker, making it suitable for the traditional Korean metal-bonding technique. This single sheet of 23.5K gold foil measures 80mm × 80mm (approximately 3.15" × 3.15") and is made in the UK using a labor-intensive hammering process. Most instructors recommend using an agate burnisher to apply gold foil when practicing Keum-Boo.
