Premium Manetti Brand loose gold leaf in 22kt double weight. This 500-leaf pack contains 20 books of individually separated leaves, each measuring 3 3/8" x 3 3/8" square, delivering approximately 38 square feet of coverage. At 16 grams per 1000 leaves, double gold offers enhanced durability and workability compared to standard leaf.

What is Double Gold? Double gold is heavier and slightly thicker than regular gold leaf—typically 10% to 20% thicker—making it more forgiving for gilding applications and less prone to tearing during application.

Loose Leaf Format Each leaf is interleaved with thin rouge paper, allowing you to remove one leaf at a time with a gilder's tip without disturbing the rest. This format provides superior control and minimal waste, ideal for detailed gilding work on frames, furniture, artwork, and decorative surfaces.
