Story: Scumbling is a decorative technique of dragging translucent glaze over a base coat to add texture and depth. Historically, it was used to transform inexpensive woods like pine into the appearance of luxurious, high-end furniture. Faux bois - literally "false wood" in French - is a decorative craft that skill fully disguises other materials to look exactly like natural timber.
