A traditional artist's tool designed for paper burnishing, miniature painting, and fine art preparation, our Oval Agate Paper Burnisher is crafted from carefully selected Brazilian agate stone and polished to an exceptionally smooth surface.
Traditionally used in miniature painting, the burnisher is gently rubbed over the paper surface to smooth, compact, and enhance its natural sheen. It can be used for burnishing prepared paper and for the final polishing process after the painted surface is completely dry, depending on the artist's traditional technique.
The smooth oval, egg-shaped form sits comfortably in the hand and allows controlled, even pressure across the paper. With proper use, the highly polished agate surface retains its smooth finish even after long-term use.
Each piece is made from natural agate stone, giving every burnisher its own unique color, pattern, and natural character.
