Thin foil or leaf of metal (such as gold, silver, or copper) edit
- 1671, Thomas Birch, quoting Martin Vogel, The History of the Royal Society of London, published 1756, pages 489–490:
- Monsr. Schroter presented the following paper concerning the manner of making at Nurenberg in Germany the foils, which goldsmiths use to put under precious stones: "Concerning the preparing those foliers, it is to be observed, 1. How and out of what substance they are prepared. […] The first, viz. the substance, out of which they are made, is nothing else but copper, which either is beaten thin, or by a plate-mill is brought to that thinness. […] Now to speak of the colour itself, they first take good coals of hard wood, and put them into the furnace, and being almost burnt, they shut the door, that is behind, and put before the hole of the pipe or channel abovesaid the iron plate with the foliers affixed; so that the foliers come just before the said orifice or hole of the pipe; and thus one folier after another will by the smoke of the coals draw a colour, and become of a dull reddish colour.

In 1899 the 49 gold-beaters' establishments employed 300 laborers and used up 758 pounds of pure gold and 362 pounds of pure silver in folier.
