Product Information

23.75kt 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!! 23.75kt Gold has 23.75kt 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″).

  1. Frank Martinez

    Honestly didn’t think it would look this good. Very happy with my purchase.

  2. Jennifer K.

    Turned out exactly how I wanted. Very happy with this purchase.

  3. Amanda Chen

    The color is gorgeous and really elevates my craft projects. I’ve used it on picture frames, small decorative boxes, and even some homemade greeting cards. A little goes a long way and the sheets are easy to cut to size. My only advice is to work in a space without any air circulation because these sheets will fly away with the slightest breeze!

  4. Paul

    This stuff sticks to everything except where you want it sometimes, but that’s just the nature of working with metal leaf I guess.

  5. Robert P.

    No complaints, does what gold leaf is supposed to do.

  6. David

    You have to be really careful handling it but the end result is stunning.

  7. Nancy

    Nice warm gold tone, not too brassy.

  8. Mark Wilson

    First time using gold leaf and this was forgiving enough for a newbie. Messed up a few pieces but had plenty to work with.

  9. Dorothy

    You need a steady hand and good lighting, but the results are totally worth the effort.

    I restore antique furniture and needed gold leaf for a client’s ornate dresser that had seen better days. This product performed beautifully on all the intricate carved sections. The sheets were consistently thin and the color matched the existing aged gilding perfectly after I applied the right finish over it. I’ve ordered from other suppliers before and had issues with uneven thickness, but these sheets were reliable throughout the entire box. Will definitely order again for future projects.
