We do use real gold application but most of our work uses "Gold effect" metal powder in place of pure gold leaf or powder applied in the traditional way. Not only is there a large price difference, there is negligible, if any, visual difference between the two methods.
We use a proprietary mix of metals encapsulated within a oxygen-free and water-resistant clear compound, which is highly resistant to scratches and any sort of erosion - much more resilient than real gold application. The gold effect is created with a mix of pure brass, copper and zinc, the silver effect is aluminum powder, the bronze is bronze powder, the copper is copper powder.

More about kintsugi art: Kintsugi is said to have originated in the 15th century when a Japanese shogun broke a favorite tea bowl and sent it back to China to be fixed.

Disappointed, the shogun enlisted Japanese craftsmen to come up with a more aesthetically pleasing solution. Although kintsugi repair makes it appear as though the original piece was mended with gold, the original process is essentially a form of lacquer art.
Broken pieces are glued back together using urushi lacquer, derived from the sap of the Chinese lacquer tree. The final layer of urushi is covered with fine gold powder and then burnished. The collection of the sap and processing of the urushi oil is difficult because of its toxicity.
