I have put together a very nice gilding kit, the kit comprises a solid hard wood hinged box with a gilders cushion mounted on the top. A genuine bone handled gilders knife plus an agate burnisher. You also get a book of composition gold leaf plus pumice powder which is used to de grease the cushion. You will also get a copy of my popular step by step gilding manual. I am writing another manual about gilding onto other materials, which includes how to obtain various antique and distressed finishes, you will receive a free copy of this manual when it is completed.

Because of the value of this item it will be shipped by surface mail, fully insured and with a tracking number.

 

Price $112.99/£59.99 includes shipping.

gold leaf

Composition gold leaf is a vastly under rated material, I used it all the time on leather bindings in place of gold foil.

Composition gold leaf comes in various shades, the one I sell here is a very close match to 23 carat gold leaf in colour, it looks very convincing when used in place of genuine gold leaf.

You can purchase it here from this site at prices lower than most places online and lower than you would pay in a store.

These prices are all inclusive, they include all taxes and shipping by airmail to your door whether in Europe or the USA.

Also don't forget that there is one manual concerning gilding onto leather which you can download on this site for free, there is also another manual coming shortly concerning how to achieve various antique and distressed finishes to this leaf
