23K Artisans Gold (Patent) - 13g - 3-1/8" Book - Artisans Gold This is genuine 23K Artisans Gold leaf in patent form — 13g 3-1/8" leaf from Artisans Gold, made for gilders who lay real gold. Artisans Gold is genuine gold leaf beaten for gilders who want real karat gold at a working price — true gold color and handling without the premium-leaf premium. Patent (transfer) leaf is pressed to a tissue backing so you can press it straight onto the sized surface — faster to lay, ideal for large flat areas, outdoor work, and oil-size gilding. A book is the right size to learn a new shade or keep a working stock of the colors you reach for most. Use it for glass gilding and reverse-glass work on musical instruments and decorative objects. 23K Artisans Gold is the classic gilder's shade — the color clients picture when they ask for gold leaf. Handle leaf in still air — even a breath moves it. Keep books flat, dry, and away from direct sun; leaf keeps indefinitely when stored cool and dry. Wipe tools clean before you start so no oil or dust rides along onto the size. Details
