Powdered & Shell Gold / Silver
Powdered gold and silver are finely ground forms of precious metal used for detailed gilding, restoration, and decorative applications. These powders allow artists to apply metal using a brush, making them ideal for small areas, intricate ornamentation, retouching, and manuscript illumination where traditional leaf application may be difficult.
Sepp Leaf Products offers Powdered Gold, Powdered Silver, Shell Gold, and Shell Silver for professional gilding and artistic work. Shell gold and shell silver are prepared by combining finely powdered metal with a binder and forming it into a small cake, traditionally used with water and a brush for precise application. These materials are commonly used by conservators, icon painters, illuminators, and decorative artists working on detailed or delicate surfaces.
