Damar Crystals are a premium natural resin derived from the purest sap of the Southeast Asian pine tree (Shorea species). Renowned for their translucent, amber hue and exceptional quality, they have been a cornerstone of fine art practices for centuries. These versatile crystals are most commonly used to create varnishes that provide a durable, glossy finish, enhancing colour vibrancy and protecting artworks from dust, grime, and UV damage. The resulting varnish lends paintings a professional sheen while preserving their brilliance and longevity.
Beyond varnish-making, Damar Crystals are a valuable additive to mediums, offering remarkable creative possibilities. When dissolved and incorporated into oil or wax mediums, they produce luminous glazes and textured effects, ideal for techniques like encaustic painting or impasto. In encaustic work, these crystals enhance the durability, clarity, and gloss of wax layers, ensuring long-lasting, radiant finishes. Damar Crystals also improve the elasticity and resilience of paint surfaces, making them resistant to cracking and environmental wear. Trusted by artists worldwide, Damar Crystals are the secret to achieving stunning glaze effects, rich textures, and professional-quality finishes. Whether you’re sealing a masterpiece or exploring innovative painting techniques, their natural brilliance and adaptability make them an essential addition to any artist’s toolkit.
