gold leaf decoration
Gold leaf decoration is a classical ornamentation technique using polyurethane decorative elements with gold leaf applied to their surface. It is used on elements such as cornices, medallions, frames and column capitals to create a gold colour accent. The polyurethane material is lightweight and applied with construction adhesive; it resists moisture and impact, does not crack, blister or warp, and can be painted. Thanks to its smooth moulded surface, it provides a suitable base for gold leaf application. Being lighter than its plaster equivalent, it is easy to carry and install. Since it is cast in moulds, the profile and details are identical on every piece. Polure produces polyurethane decoration elements suitable for gold leaf application in different sizes.
