Handover : Gilders Cushion : Standard Vegan

A modern take on a traditional gilders tool, this vegan gilding cushion offers a practical alternative to leather while keeping the feel and function needed for working with gold leaf. It provides a soft, slightly cushioned surface for cutting and lifting leaf, helping to keep it under control while you work.

Made using a vegan-friendly material in place of the usual leather or suede, it’s a good option for those looking to avoid animal products without compromising usability. The surface still gives enough grip to steady the leaf while allowing clean cuts with a gilders knife.

The cushion includes a handle underneath, so it can be held comfortably in one hand in the usual way, making it easy to move and position as you work. A fitted plastic wind shield helps protect the leaf from draughts – something that can easily disturb or tear loose leaf – while also acting as a guard during cutting.

A straightforward, functional tool suited to both beginners and experienced gilders, especially where portability and control are important.
