copper leaf
Decorative metal sheeting
Copper leaf is extremely thin sheets of copper, hammered or rolled until nearly translucent, used for gilding and decorative purposes.
It functions like gold leaf but produces a warm, reddish-brown metallic finish: The dome was covered in copper leaf that would eventually patina to green.
Copper leaf is less expensive than gold leaf and often used for craft projects or architectural details where a coppery tone is desired.
