You may also use silver leaf/foil encased by a pale amber and it appears 'gold' without the expense of the real thing. You will have to experiment with the base color too; some reactions will occur that would not with real gold leaf. I guess you could encase the base color in amber, add the silver, then encase again. If I can readily find my beads done like this, will post some pics.
