Description

Description: Agate burnishers are a great way to set stones. Bezel setting specifically. The agates give a nice smooth look to the metal if rubbed around the bezel wall while and after setting.

An agate burnisher is a tool used in printmaking, bookbinding, and other crafts to create a polished finish on a surface. It is typically made of agate stone, which is a type of microcrystalline quartz, and has a smooth, polished surface.

To use an agate burnisher, the user rubs the tool back and forth over the surface of the material being worked on, applying pressure to create a polished finish. Agate burnishers are commonly used in printmaking to create a smooth, polished finish on the surface of a printing plate, which helps to ensure that ink adheres evenly to the plate and transfers cleanly to paper.

In bookbinding, agate burnishers are used to create a polished finish on the edges of the pages of a book, which is known as gilding. The burnisher is used to smooth the edges of the pages before they are gilded with gold leaf or other decorative material.

Overall, an agate burnisher is a versatile tool that can be used in a variety of crafts to create a polished finish on a wide range of surfaces.
