Gold and Platinum Leaf (1)

For many hundreds of years gold leaf has been used to decorate and highlight, and is regarded worldwide as the symbol of quality, permanence and tradition.

It is the ultimate signwriting medium, as it is virtually pure gold (23.75ct), it will never tarnish or fade and will always retain its optical properties. It is used extensively in the licensed trade, by quality retailers, the church and religious organisations. Gold can be applied to many materials and will retain its long life, for example when applied to glass, the design life is in excess of one hundred years.

We use both transfer and loose gold and platinum leaf, as the optical properties are totally different, as are the effects.

These are the full sized images. We apologise that the image quality varies occasionally but this is due to the quality of the photographs, not of the work itself.
