Used since the Neolithic period in China to protect various objects, lacquer is the result of a thousand-year-old know-how. Today, there are several ranges of lacquer, united by a common aesthetic whose specificity is the play of textures, reflections, shine and transparency. A unique art, lacquer is nevertheless rich in a multitude of traditions born of different places and materials.

Richly illustrated, this book traces the history of lacquer throughout the world and through the ages, from its thousand-year-old use in Asia to its arrival in Europe where new formulas were developed. It then presents different lacquer techniques, with step-by-step instructions for each one to help understand how the work is made. Finally, an important section devoted to contemporary lacquer allows the reader to discover the work of numerous lacquer artists in France and around the world.
