Default Rolled Gold Leaf

Has anyone used this?

I like the idea that it is already sized in a smaller width.

No, haven't used it, but looks very Interesting. The pound is lower ATM, so it would be a good time to get it.

I can't quite get my head around how many beads that would be for the length though. My best guess is a bunch

I'm curious if it would handle the heat and if it's safe for lampworking. If so, that sounds awesome! Let me know if you find out more info. ��

As long as it's not fixed to paper like the leaf 'transfer' sheets I just accidentally bought

I wonder how this = to a book of leaves quantity wise? Looks handy.

I just ordered a regular book of 25 sheets. The final price including the VAT and shipping was still about $20 dollars cheaper than the other places I looked at.

You live in the US, you don't pay UK VAT. So total would be minus that cost.
