Giusto Manetti Battiloro Silver Leaf Books - 95 x 95 mm 20 g Pure Silver Transfer 25 Leaves

Silver leaf. A traditional material intended for professional restoration, craft, and artistic gilding. The Silver Leaf Transfer sheets in pure Silver shade are made of pure silver and feature a bright, cool, and neutrally metallic appearance. This material is characterized by its distinctive silvery‑white tone, which gives gilded surfaces a modern, elegant, and visually clean effect. Silver leaf is widely used in decorative and artistic applications where a pure, crisp, and distinctly metallic finish is desired, different from any gold‑based shades.

The thickness of the silver leaf is defined by its corresponding weight of 28 grams per 1,000 leaves, resulting in a stronger yet still flexible sheet suitable for precise work. Thanks to its adaptability, the material conforms exceptionally well to intricate surfaces, inlays, wooden decorations, picture frames, and sculptural details.

Transfer leaves differ from loose leaves because they rest on a sheet of tissue paper, which protrudes from the booklet to facilitate and speed up handling and application. This format is applied exclusively with the oil gilding technique, especially on smooth surfaces or for exterior gilding. The supporting tissue paper allows precise placement, minimizes the risk of tearing, and simplifies manipulation.

Pure silver produces a bright, cool, and neutrally metallic effect, ideal for projects requiring a silvery, modern, and visually light appearance.
