Authentiek bladgoud wordt al sinds de middeleeuwen geïmiteerd door een transparant geel glazuur aan te brengen op bladzilver of -tin. In de 19e eeuw werd ook bladbrons voor dit doeleinde gebruikt. Tegenwoordig wordt imitatiebladgoud meestal gemaakt van gekleurde vellen aluminium of wit goud (palladium en platina). |
