Copper Leaf Small Flake (12 grams) - Nazionale This is Copper Leaf Small Flake (12 grams) — composition copper leaf (the trade calls it Dutch metal or schlagmetal) that gives the look of copper at a fraction of genuine leaf's cost. It's real metal leaf — a copper alloy made for gilding — that cuts, lifts, and lays just like the genuine article. Surface leaf is the classic loose-leaf booklet for hand gilding — each leaf interleaved with tissue, ready to pick up with a tip and lay onto your prepared ground. Composition leaf is the smart buy for practice, stage work, props, crafts, and large areas where genuine karat leaf would break the budget. Use it for water gilding over gesso and clay on signs, panels, and dimensional letters. Seal composition copper leaf every time — unlike genuine gold, it tarnishes without a protective topcoat. Store flat, dry, and sealed — composition leaf tarnishes in damp air even before it's laid. Keep it off the bench with your genuine leaf so the two never mix mid-job. Details
