The Schlagmetall or Hammered Metals (imitation gold leaf and imitation Silver leaf) are used mainly in the field of the decoration of: frames, furniture, ceramics, glass, buildings, etc…

These are made mainly like an alternative to the genuine gold leaf and the genuine silver leaf because cheaper. Recently these have had a quickly development due to the new production process trough new hammering machines because less ductile and malleable than real gold and real silver.

The effect on the decoration is similar but the price is cheaper!
