Folk Impressions is the manufacturer and distributor of various Wax Art products and supplies. Our product line starts with the Original Electric Kistka ~ Hot Wax Pen — which our company’s predecessor, Wasyl Ohar, invented and brought to market in the 1970′s. Since this time, the Original Electric Kistka has become and remained the professional Egg Artist’s choice for making Pysanky and/or Pisanki. The tool is also used in other wax relief arts, batik, encaustic arts, silk painting, and in specific art and document restoration applications.
We are a family company, carrying on the traditions started by Wasyl Ohar, our key product’s inventor. We strive to provide to the wax art market high quality tools and supplies. We continue to innovate new products — allowing our products to be used in a broad range of wax art disciplines.
