Gilders Tips
The gilders tip is used to lift metal leaf from the gilders pad and carefully apply it to the prepared surface. The soft hairs of the brush allow the gilder to gently grip the delicate leaf, typically using a slight static charge, and transfer it accurately without damaging the material.
Sepp Leaf Products offers a full line of gilders tips designed for precise handling of gold and metal leaf. These brushes are made from high-quality squirrel and sable hair and are available in a range of widths and lengths with lightweight cardboard handles. Tips are manufactured in two weights: single tips and double tips. Single tips are typically used for delicate gold leaf work, while double tips contain more hair and are commonly used to lift heavier leaves such as genuine silver, platinum, and composition metal leaf.
