Product Information
23.5kt Genuine Gold leaf. The gold leaf is beaten mechanically by machines through thousands of repetitions, mauling it to a thin layer of gold.
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!! 23.5kt Gold has 23.5kt 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″).

Really fragile stuff but I guess that’s normal? Worked fine once I figured out the technique.
Tom –
Super thin and tears easily if you’re not careful, but that’s kind of the point with gold leaf. Final result looks expensive and professional.
Michelle Santos –
Used this in my mixed media artwork and it adds such a nice touch.
Daniel P. –
Gives a real gold appearance without the cost of solid gold obviously. Happy with it.
Karen –
The gold really catches the light beautifully. Very pleased with how my project turned out.
Lisa M. –
Makes everything look fancy. Used it on some flower pots.
Eric B. –
Not gonna lie, my first few attempts were disasters. But after wasting a couple sheets figuring it out, I got the technique down and now I’m adding gold accents to everything in my house. It’s actually kind of addictive once you see how classy it makes things look. The key is having the right adhesive and not breathing too hard near it. Sounds silly but it’s true – this stuff will float away if you sneeze.

I’m a picture framer and this is comparable to what we normally order from our supplier but at a better price point.

Gold leaf is gold leaf. This one works fine.

I’ve been refinishing vintage furniture as a hobby for about two years now, and this was my first time attempting gilding. I watched a few YouTube tutorials beforehand and felt prepared. The gold leaf was delicate but manageable once I got into a rhythm. I used it on the carved details of an old mirror frame and the transformation is incredible. Everyone who sees it thinks I paid a professional to do it. The color is rich and authentic looking.
