gamboge (resin and pigment) (resin (organic material), organic material, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Translucent golden-colored resin composed of a yellow resinous component and a clear water-soluble gum, produced by several trees of the genus Garcinia native to India, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, and Sri Lanka. Gamboge was used as a yellow pigment as early as the 8th century in Asia and Japan. It was regularly imported to Europe in the 17th century. It is marketed in the form of dull, brownish-yellow cakes or lumps that, when powdered, have a rich golden color. The carbohydrate gum acts as a natural binder. Gamboge is used as a transparent colorant in glazes, varnishes, and watercolors. The yellow color fades when exposed to light or ozone. In some cases it has recovered its color when placed in the dark.

|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 由黃色樹脂狀成分與一種清澈的水溶性樹膠所構成的半透明金色樹脂，係幾種原生於印度、泰國、柬埔寨、越南及斯里蘭卡的山竹子屬喬木所產。藤黃早在西元八世紀時便在亞洲與日本作為黃色顏料，而在十七世紀時便定期地輸出至歐洲，市場上販售的形式為黯淡的棕黃色塊狀或團狀物，而磨成粉後可呈現鮮豔的金色。這種碳水化合物樹膠可作為天然黏結劑，亦可加入釉料、清漆或水彩顏料中作為透明的著色劑。藤黃暴露於光線下或臭氧中會褪色，若再放回黑暗處有可能回復原本的金黃色。 |
| Dutch ..... een doorschijnende goudkleurige hars die bestaat uit een gele harsachtige component en een heldere in water oplosbare gom, geproduceerd door verschillende bomen van het geslacht Garcinia afkomstig uit India, Thailand, Cambodja, Vietnam en Sri Lanka. Guttegom werd als een gele pigment al in de 8e eeuw in Azië en Japan. Het werd regelmatig naar Europa geïmporteerd in de 17e eeuw. Het wordt verkocht in de vorm van doffe, bruin-gele cakes of klontjes die, wanneer in poedervorm, een rijke gouden kleur hebben. De gom uit koolhydraat fungeert als een natuurlijke bindmiddel. Guttegom wordt gebruikt als een transparante kleurstof in glazuren, vernissen en waterverven. De gele kleur verdwijnt bij blootstelling aan licht of ozon. In sommige gevallen kan de kleur herstellen wanneer in het donker geplaatst wordt. |
