Description

The listing, Rare 4 UNCUT UNOPENED WHOLE Vintage Pure Silver Leaf Books Large has ended.

This Silver leaf was used by an old Frame maker and artist some 75+ years ago
I feel that much of this gold and silver is from the turn of the century, but I can only date it pre-1943.
I've sold alot of this on here already and everyone has been very pleased with the stuff.
This auction is for a BUNDLE of whole books that will measure approx. 6 inches by 6 inches and will have about 25 sheets inside(100 sheets total). These silver books where MADE IN JAPAN, each book is marked so.
It's very thin and you can use it for all kinds of craft ideals
Auto body, woodwork, sculptures, paintings, could even do your nails in pure silver. You can always layer something in pure silver a process called Gilding.

If you use the *Get it now* then I will send you a 1x4 inch book of pure 24k gold (same deal very old and marked made in Italy or marked made in Germany, your choice),

otherwise this auction is ONLY for 4 whole booklets of Silver. a Very Rare find to have an uncut bundle, each book is bound with green string and all 4 books are tied together with very thin string, uncut after 75+ years, picture 3 is a sample of what the silver looks like(from another already opened book), won't find a better looking leaf, much more character than modern machine made leaf.
This leaf is old and was made by pounding out the gold/silver thinner and thinner and even thinner by skilled gold beaters, a process used for thousands of years before now, yet lost with today's modern industries.

I wish to pass this on to someone who will cherish it, use it, and bring smiles to others with it.
You could Gild an entire statue of David or do a lifetime of smaller projects. This is a lot of surface area.
Your only limited to your own imagination.

I will ship these to you for Free.
