{"product_id":"jack-richeson-tjanting-needles","title":"Tjanting Needles","description":"\u003cp\u003eFine-line wax application requires steady flow and precise control, tjanting needles deliver both. These traditional tools hold melted wax in a small reservoir that feeds through a fine metal spout, letting you draw continuous lines for batik work, fabric resist techniques, and encaustic details. The controlled flow maintains consistent line weight as you work, whether outlining shapes before dyeing or creating intricate patterns across silk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJack Richeson designs these needles with comfortable wooden handles that stay cool even when working with hot wax. The metal reservoir heats quickly when dipped into melted wax, maintaining proper flow temperature as you work across your surface. Needle spouts come in different gauges for varying line weights, finer tips for delicate details, wider openings for bolder marks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional batik artists rely on tjanting needles for the precision that brush application can't match. The tool responds to your hand movement immediately, creating clean lines without the pooling or spreading that happens with less controlled methods. Works beautifully for both traditional fabric dyeing and contemporary encaustic techniques where fine wax lines need to remain distinct.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jack Richeson","offers":[{"title":"large","offer_id":47978418372837,"sku":"51494","price":6.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"small","offer_id":47978418405605,"sku":"67828","price":10.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"medium","offer_id":47978418438373,"sku":"85761","price":10.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s67828.jpg?v=1770309867","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/jack-richeson-tjanting-needles","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
