Eytzinger is Germany’s oldest gold leaf manufacturer, operating in the city of Schwabach since 1867. Although founder Johann Gottlieb Eytzinger was originally a cheesemaker who pivoted to gold leaf production, the business he established continues to operate today under third-generation family management (Christian Scheuring). The brand’s crocodile emblem is considered one of Germany’s oldest registered trademarks.

The brand's most distinctive difference is its combination of Schwabach's traditional gold beating craft—which has been practiced for over 500 years—with modern production techniques. All products are manufactured exclusively at their own facility in Schwabach, entirely in Germany; this ensures a high and consistent standard regarding the thinness, coverage, and workability of the leaf during transfer.

The collection includes items such as loose gold leaf, flake gold leaf, silver leaf, palladium and platinum leaf, roll leaf, and powdered gold (Pudergold); the tools required for gilding are also part of the range. This wide selection has made it the primary choice for practitioners of traditional arts, particularly gilding, as well as icon and frame restoration.

Karin Sanat has been an authorized distributor of Eytzinger gold leaves in Turkey since 2000, importing and offering the brand's most in-demand products directly from Germany. All products are supplied with an original product guarantee and are available for sale under the gold leaf category on karinsanat.com, as well as in our Fatih and Nişantaşı stores.
