Never invent the drop.
One checked price is one observation, not a trend. Undated snapshots never become price drops or target alerts.

About this product range
- Traditional adhesive for historic gessoes, sizing, and more
- Superior-quality rabbit collagen granules
- Dissolves easily in water
- High strength, viscosity, and elasticity
- Ideal for distemper painting, woodworking, and gilding techniques
Rublev Genuine Rabbit Skin Glue is a premium, high-strength adhesive used in traditional painting, woodworking, and gilding. Made from 100% top-quality rabbit collagen sourced in Italy, it offers exceptional adhesion and flexibility.
Soaked and then heated in water, granules dissolve easily to create a warm, gel-like adhesive that strengthens as it cools. Unlike modern synthetic adhesives, rabbit skin glue remains reversible and adjustable, allowing repositioning in woodworking and restoration work.
Known for its high viscosity and elasticity, rabbit skin glue is favored for gesso applications due to its ability to gel at lower temperatures, ensuring a smooth, stable foundation for painting and gilding. Its use extends back to ancient Egypt, making it a time-tested choice for both fine arts and traditional crafts.
