The old style sheet are vintage and made of thin rough tissue and created in a primitive style.
New Style sheets are made of heavier pressed paper and are made uniformly.
Each sheet of paper is accented by a piece of silver leaf that has been attached to the sheet with adhesive. The golden sheets have been washed with orange ink and the silver leaf is adhered - creating the golden image.
This is spirit paper and has been created for ceremonies. We have known artists to create artwork representing spiritual intention.
The leafing techniques are old - similar to silver and gold leaf today. This is not genuine silver or gold.
