Giusto Manetti Battiloro Gold Leaf Books - 80 x 80 mm 13 g Dark Yellow Gold"H" 23 kt Loose 5 Leaves

Gold Leaf. Traditional material intended for professional restoration, craftsmanship, and artistic gilding. The Golden Leaf Loose sheets in the shade Dark Yellow Gold “H”, with a fineness of 23 karats, represent a traditional type of gold with a darker, more intense yellow tone characteristic of historical decorative techniques, classical frames, and artistic objects requiring a richer, deeper gold color. This shade is less orange and noticeably darker than standard yellow gold tones, making it a preferred material in restoration work where preserving the original appearance of older gilded surfaces is essential. The booklet contains loose sheets measuring 80 × 80 mm

The thickness of the gold leaf is defined by a standardized weight of 13 grams per 1,000 sheets, resulting in a finer and more pliable leaf suitable for detailed work. Thanks to its flexibility, the material adapts exceptionally well to intricate surfaces, inlays, wooden decorations, picture frames, and sculptural elements.

Loose sheets are ideal for water gilding on poliment, where they allow the creation of a smooth, highly polished surface. They can also be used for oil gilding on properly prepared smooth substrates.

Thanks to its 23‑karat purity and distinctive dark‑yellow hue, this gold produces an authentic, historically accurate effect. It is suitable for restorers, decorative artisans, and creators who require a professional material with a traditional, saturated golden color character.
