As described above, the image receptor for thermal transfer of the present invention has a base layer having at least a metallic luster and a resin layer dyeable to a sublimable dye or a heat-melt transfer dye on one surface of the support, as described above. In the laminated structure, the underlayer is a layer for imparting a desired metallic luster to the dye image transferred / formed on the resin layer having the structure described later. Specifically, it may be formed from a metal such as aluminum, chromium, or nickel, or an oxide or sulfide thereof, by a vapor deposition method, a laminating method, or the like.

On the other hand, the resin layer laminated on the underlayer is made of a resin dyeable with a sublimable dye or a hot-melt dye, for example, a resin such as polyester resin, polyamide resin, polyacrylic resin, etc. It is a layer for recording a desired transfer image, which is dyed with a dye contained in the thermal transfer recording material contained therein.

Since an underlayer having a metallic luster is located under this layer, the image transferred and formed in the resin layer is influenced by the underlayer and becomes a metallic luster image exhibiting a desired hue. This resin layer may contain a dye or a pigment in advance. By doing so, it is possible to express a metallic luster feeling different from the metallic luster feeling of the base. For example, when the underlying layer is a metal vapor deposition layer of aluminum, if a dye or pigment is not previously dispersed in the resin layer above it, only a silver-colored transfer material can be obtained as a whole. When a coloring agent is mixed in, the obtained transfer product will exhibit a metallic luster of golden color even though the underlayer is a vapor deposition layer of aluminum.
