Simple
Leaf is
traditional metal leaf applied to a
waxed transfer film so it is easily
applied to flat surfaces without the
mess and waste of traditional metal
leaves. When Simple Leaf is applied to
a glued surface, only the leaf that is
applied to the glue is removed from the
transfer film. This allows the artist
to save time and money by reusing the
remaining leaf on the transfer film.
(See project and technique page for more
details.)
Just like our regular
leafing, our gold Simple Leaf is
made up of copper and zinc which, when
formulated correctly, closely resembles
pure gold but is a fraction of the
price.
Our silver Simple Leaf
is made of an aluminum alloy. It gives
the look of sterling silver, at a much
lower cost, and will not tarnish like
sterling silver. |
