Gold Leaf Painting There are many different shades of genuine gold and silver leaf available. Karats range from 9k, to 24k fine gold and many in-between. Other precious metals that can widen the color palette include moon gold, black oxidozed silver, platinum, and palladium, deep and rich in color tone which may be further enhanced with a hint of a black wash. Non-precious metals of brass and aluminum are also available. The clay bole that acts as an undercoat to the gold, is usually red and can be another to produce a slightly different tone. |
