Of or relating to gamboge; having the quality or color of gamboge.
From 'gamboge' + '-ian' (suffix meaning of or belonging to). The '-ian' suffix typically denotes origin, relation, or resemblance, commonly used with place names and substances.
The '-ian' suffix usually makes us think of places like 'Cambodian' or 'Scandinavian,' so using it with a substance ('gambogian') is clever—it suggests the resin is so distinctive it deserves its own descriptor like a nationality!
