Silken Wax Set – Goethe Yellow

Warm yellowwash inspired by light and wisdom

This Silken Wax Set combines soft, natural wax with Decoration Paint in Goethe Yellow – a matte, earthy yellow with a timeless character. The name pays homage to Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who described yellow in his colour theory as the hue of intellect, clarity and goodness. The result? A warm yellowwash full of subtle glow and thoughtful expression.

What’s included in the set?

• 1 jar of Silken Wax (filled 2/3 – space reserved for mixing)

• 1 jar of Decoration Paint in Goethe Yellow (filled 1/3)

Add the paint directly into the wax jar and stir thoroughly. For a softer, more translucent effect, simply use less paint – this gives a gentler tint and a more diffused finish.

Application: a yellowwash with historical depth

Silken Wax in Goethe Yellow is perfect for:

• Vintage or characterful wooden furniture

• Interior doors, panelling, or rustic wood walls

• Decorative objects with grain or carved detail

The shade brings instant warmth, while the wax enhances texture and depth. The more you polish, the more a silky glow appears – a subtle yet radiant result.

How to use: warm, mix, apply, buff

1. Place the wax in a heated space (min. 18°C) for several hours to soften the texture

2. Add the paint and stir thoroughly in the wax jar

3. Apply the mixture to wood using a brush

4. Allow to absorb for a few minutes (depending on temperature and wood’s porosity)

5. Buff with a dry, lint-free cloth – more pressure = more sheen
