ENCAUSTIC

Encaustic is a painting technique that already developed in the antiquity. According to estimates, the technology is already over 3,000 years old and nowadays still very popular.

At the present time, the development of special tools and Encaustic waxes has revived the theme of Encaustic. It is important to note that the development of Encaustic waxes is not directly different from that of antiquity. The main component of the waxes is still bees wax with the corresponding mixtures of color pigments.

We have been the supplier of Encaustic technology for many years. The cooperation with Michael Bossom, Arts Encaustic and Stockmar was fundamental to develop the special Encaustic iron and Encaustic. The enormous variety, the enthusiasm for this technology and the constant development in the Encaustic technique inspire us over and over again.
