Product Information
Genuine Silver Leaf. The silver leaf is beaten mechanically by machines through thousands of repetitions, mauling it to a thin layer of silver.
Other uses of genuine silver leaf
Silver leaf is applied in interior design (decorating walls), exterior renovation such as domes in churches, figurines, furniture restorations, signage, signboards, photo frames, mirrors, scrapbooking, and other craftwork.
Genuine, not imitation silver leaf
Genuine Silver Metal Leaf is made with 100% pure silver. There are other metal leaves out on the market that are called “silverleaf” because of their appearance, but they are in fact aluminum, and have ZERO silver in them. The industrial term for these leaves is called imitation silver leaf. These leaves are used for mass production of furniture and frames. The aluminum leaf has less luster, and has a “whiter” metallic look than the genuine silver—genuine silver has a warmer color tone.
Please note that genuine silver will change color over time. So if one is to use this product, it is necessary to varnish with a protective coating. Artists sometimes prefer the oxidized effects of the leaf and use it as part of its design.
Larger silver leaf sheets than typical
Please also note that our leaves are industrial class silver sheets. The sizes are almost 4 times as large as other 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″).

Tears really easily. Maybe I’m just not experienced enough but I wasted like half the sheets trying to get them to lay flat.

SO PRETTY ON MY CRAFT PROJECT. VERY SHINY AND ELEGANT LOOKING.

I build custom guitars as a hobby and wanted to add some decorative silver leaf inlay to a headstock design. These sheets worked perfectly for the application. The silver has a nice bright finish that really pops against the dark wood. I used a specialized adhesive for instrument making and the leaf adhered without any issues. A few pieces did float away when my shop door opened unexpectedly, so definitely make sure your workspace is draft-free. The sheets are thin enough to conform to slightly curved surfaces which was exactly what I needed.

Makes my crafts look so professional and expensive. Highly recommend.

I make medieval-style illuminated manuscripts as a hobby and this silver leaf is great for decorative elements and small details. It’s not as forgiving as the imitation leaf but the authentic look is worth it. I mix the scraps with gum arabic to make paint which works surprisingly well for fine line work. The books are well-packaged and the sheets don’t stick together. My only gripe is I wish they sold smaller quantities because I don’t use it as often as gold, but that’s not really the seller’s problem.
