Brand: Edward C Lyons
Rating: 5 (2 reviews)

Known as the finest in the world, EC Lyons mezzotint rockers are made using the highest-quality high carbon tool steel.   By working the rocker with a rocking motion over a copper/zinc plate in a  criss-cross  fashion, burrs are created that then trap the ink to produce rich, velvety black tones unequalled in any other intaglio process.   The rockers are 7&quot; long with a medium  (85-gauge)  screen, and feature a stained birch handle.

Rock these finely serrated tools over the plate, texturing the surface. Then progressively burnish out the light tones to produce the infinitely subtle beauty of the mezzotint print.
