To clarify: I like using copper leaf to get special effects. I like using silver foil so the foil shows up and isn't burned off easily. Palladium foil is wonderful when not encased because it can get some peacock hues going, especially if it is in the kiln for a long time. I have used gold leaf but it seems pricey for an effect that is about the same as the silver but warmer looking.
