This handheld Gilders Cushion, also called a Gilder's Pad, is made with high quality suede that will not tear, scratch or damage your gold or other metal leaf.
Loose leaf gold is placed on the gilders cushion, where it can be gently cut with a gilder’s knife, then moved to the gilding surface using a gilders tip. It comes with a thumb strap on the back allowing you to easily control the pad while cutting the gold leaf, and a windshield to keep the leaf from being disturbed by air currents. It also features an additional strap on the underside for holding your gilders knife.
The pad is approximately 6" x 10" Made in Germany
