A meticulous worker carefully sets gold leaf on paper by hand in Thailand.

Footage shows the skillful employee using a stick to precisely transfer thin sheets of gold foils to pieces of paper in Bangkok on November 1.

The worker can place a single leaf on its case in less than two seconds and could finish a thick batch in an hour. They are then used for religious ceremonies in Buddhist temples.

Gold leaf workshop employee San Siri said: ‘It's a skill that could be learned, but it will take a long time.'
