The professional extra large gilders cushion, also known as a gilders pad, is ideal for cutting gold or other metal leaf. It can also be easily used to stage up to 6 gold leaves for use with a Thorn Tip. Especially useful when working with larger imitation 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. This cushion will not lay flat on a table. The suede is of the highest quality and will not scratch or damage your gold leaf.
