Gilding necessitates the use of specialized brushes that are soft and possess a wide surface area. The Roubloff squirrel brushes crafted for gilding are an excellent choice for this delicate work. Gilding involves applying a thin layer of gold onto various surfaces such as metal, wood, plaster, stone, porcelain, or other materials. Some artists even use gold sheets in their fine art creations, with Gustav Klimt being a notable example. In the technique involving brushes, artists apply a special glue, place a delicate foil-like sheet on top, and use the brush to evenly spread the gold without creating air bubbles.

Using a brush that is too firm may inadvertently remove some of the gold, while a brush that is not wide enough may lead to insufficient time for spreading before the glue sets. The Roubloff squirrel wide brushes address these challenges effectively. These brushes are specifically designed for gilding, featuring a wide flat shape made from the soft hair of a squirrel tail. The squirrel hair is securely glued between cardboard sheets and finished with natural leather for enhanced durability.
