Does anyone have sucessful experience with using gold leaf in fusing. I know that people use it sucessfully in lampwork. My experience is it burns out. Anyone have any other experience with it. have just tried gold leaf as well. I find that you have need 3 or 4 layers of leaf, a lot more than I started out with, before it really shows up or doesn't burn away. I have been covering it with clear glass. With gold & copper leaf more is the answer!
Gold is malleable, so it can be flattened into extremely thin sheets. The walls of the Gold Room are covered with approximately 28 square meters (300 square feet) of 23-karat gold leaf representing 3 ounces of gold metal. Gold leafing--also known as gilding--is an ancient technique.
