The bible of gold leafing! Gold Leaf Techniques (fourth edition), originally written in the early 1900's by Raymond LeBlanc, revised and updated by Kent Smith in 1998 Real gold leaf can add a new dimension of elegance and beauty to everything from a piece of etched glass artwork or etched glass sign, to stone, wood or metal. This almost lost art is becoming more popular as more and more people are learning the techniques once again. Formerly used primarily to create stunning and elegant signs, picture frames and the like, gold leafing is now being incorporated into etched glass gift items, glass artwork, awards and much more. This amazing book is a storehouse of information for those wanting to learn gold leafing. With 168 pages, it features a whole section on gold leafing on glass, as well as information on applying gold leaf to opaque substrates such as wood and metal. The book is a must-have reference manual as well as an instruction book for all who do gold leafing.
