Traditionally used in the decorative arts, gold leafing is symbolic of style and elegance. Historically, a protective layer of glass has been applied over the delicate leafed surfaces. With the La Leaf Collection, the protective glass layer is integrated with the leaf in a large format field tile that is suitable for dry and wet area interior applications. Crafted by Italian artisans from an area known for centuries as a glass and crystal manufacturing center, the La Leaf glass field tile is offered in a smooth leaf in which the leaves of gold are visible and have a subtle texture.
