Roberson : Beeswax Picture Varnish : 250ml

Roberson Beeswax Varnish Is Made Utilising An Ancient Recipe. The Origins Of This Medium Go Back To The Ancient Greeks, Where Beeswax Was Mixed With Pigments And Applied To Statues (traditionally Painted In Bright Colours) As Well As Decorating Ships. The Reasons Were Simple - The Medium Preserved The Bright Colours As It Provided The Finished Painting With A Durable Protective Barrier Against Aggressive Atmospheric Contaminants Over A Long Period Of Time. The Finished Surface Can Be Polished Up To Increase The Sheen If Desired.
