Chinese Lacquer, the resin of a family of trees found throughout southern China—as well as in Southeast Asia. When exposed to oxygen and humidity, lacquer hardens or polymerizes, becoming a natural plastic and an ideal protective covering for furniture, screens, trays, and other implements. Mixed with pigments, particularly cinnabar for red and carbon for black, lacquer has been also used as an artistic media for millennia.
