What is "burnishing"?
Burnishing is a technique used to smooth and polish surfaces, often in art and metalworking. It involves rubbing a hard, smooth tool or material, such as a burnishing tool or a piece of polished metal, over a surface to make it glossy and even. This process helps to improve the texture and appearance of the surface by making it shinier and more reflective. Burnishing is commonly used to improve details in carvings, paintings, and metalwork, and can give a polished finish to the artwork.
