Description

The listing, Vintage Pure 24k Gold Leaf Book Cut several sheets Silver bonus has ended.

This gold and silver was used 75+ years ago by a painter and frame-maker, the artist died in WWII. I feel that much of this gold and silver is from the turn of the century, but I can only date it pre-1943.
This is a fresh cut from one of his gold books.
The luster from this vintage gold leaf is so great there's no words for it. Beautiful, breathtaking, fascinating these words don't do it justice. It gives of a radiance that modern leaf can not. Modern leaf is machine manufactured as where this gold leaf and gold leaf for thousands of years before it was pounded out by skilled gold-beaters, a process lost with today's modern industrialism.
This particular piece is marked Made in GERMANY, with an estimated 20-25 sheets, you can see It's a healthy cut, next to a quarter in the picture you can see the size.
you can use this in art work, wood work, metal body work Ideals are limitless, you could always layer something in gold(process called Gilding), it's a great keepsake, conversation piece
Pictures are the actual book, bound with a thin red string.

Please check my other auctions I'll be auctioning a couple more books of gold at the same time.

**GIN BONUS** use GIN and I will include a cut of Pure Silver leaf book 25 sheets of even greater size as a bonus!("was" marked Made in Japan)

This Auction is just for the Book of Gold in the pictures, unless you use the GIN option, then you will receive bonus Pure Silver.


Shipping will be Fast and Free
Thanks for Looking, Happy Bidding and Good Luck!
