Product Information
21kt Genuine Moon Gold leaf. The gold leaf is beaten mechanically by machines through thousands of repetitions, mauling it to a thin layer of gold. Leaves can be cut to shape—maximizing on usage yielding.
Other uses of genuine gold leaf
Gold leaf is applied in interior design (decorating walls), exterior renovation such as domes in churches, figurines, furniture restorations, signage, signboards, photo frames, scrapbooking, and other craftwork.
Genuine, not imitation gold leaf
NOTE!! 21kt Gold has 21kt of Genuine Gold in the metal leaf. There are other metal leaves out on the market that are called "Goldleaf" because of their appearance, but they are in fact a copper zinc alloy, and have ZERO gold in them. The industrial term for these leaves is called imitation gold leaf, or composition leaf. These leaves are used for mass production of furniture and frames. However, they will oxidize and change color over time. You can test if they are composition leaf if you spray water or put vinegar on their raw surface (i.e. prior to putting on varnish or coatings).
Larger gold leaf sheets than typical
Please also note that our leaves are industrial class gold sheets. The sizes are almost 4 times as large as other gold leaf sheets you see on the internet (usually their size is 1 3/4" x 1 3/4" but it is claimed to be approximately 2" x 2").

Expected it to be harder to use but it was actually pretty straightforward.

Easy to work with once you get the technique down.

Looks amazing on my furniture project!

The color is exactly what I was hoping for. Not too shiny, just elegant.

I restore old furniture as a hobby and picked up gold leafing last year. This leaf has good coverage and the sheets are a decent size for working with carved details. I used it on the decorative elements of a vintage dresser and it brought the piece back to life. The adhesive I used with it held perfectly. My only advice is to seal it properly when you’re done or it will tarnish over time.

This is the real deal, not imitation. You can tell the difference in person.

Used this on some thrift store frames and they look expensive now. Easy to work with once you get the hang of it.

Everyone asks me if I had it professionally done. Nope, just this gold leaf!

Works great and looks even better. I had zero idea what I was doing, but the leaf performed as well as could be expected. I need to learn more about polishing the gold, but I’ll be using this brand again for my next attempt at iconography.
Lol, if anyone wants to give me tips, look for a video of me making this St Patrick icon on YouTube and leave your critique there.
I hope this helps.
