i have several vials apparentially before the 1800 melting point of gold the flakes disenergrate, it is so thin that the acid test was inefective, but can be used in other ways in nail polish or melted on metal with a hand held torch and can melt in cast iron container because cast iron melting point is higher than gold

So it's gold leaf flake not gold flakes right it's as thin as tin foil ain't it

Jan 7th, 2013 at 10:50:18 AM PST by

it as thin or thinner than foil

Jan 7th, 2013 at 12:58:19 PM PST by

This is "Leaf Gold" flakes, the same stuff they put in Goldschlager. Leafing is a thin foil of some nearly pure metal, often gold. If made by hand, small pieces of metal are placed between sheets of parchment and pounded repeatedly with wooden mallets. As the metal thins out, it forms large sheets. These sheets are divided and the process repeated. The final sheets of metal are trimmed, cut to various sizes, and sandwiched between sheets of paper to protect them. A small amount of metal will result in a sheet with a large surface area but only a few atoms thick. Obviously if it is cheap enough to be used as a decoration in food products it is not of any value.

I don't care where you bought it from! It's all the same! You can buy a gigantic bag of this "gold" for a few bucks. Or you can even put it in vials...like you have there.

It won't let me post a link but just go to Ebay and type in "Gold Flakes" and VOILA....all the gold flakes you can dream off.

Wow,,,seems like 2ManTu got up on the wrong side of the gold flakes. LOL! Great auction susangarrett505. I have a necklace with fairy dust in it and I could put the gold flakes in it instead.
