Horadam Schmincke Watercolours, with 125 years of experience, present themselves as one of the leading brands of watercolour colours for professional artists.
Extra-fine colours for artists, optimised and complemented. In this box, each colour has its own optimised formula. As a binder in its composition, a superb gum arabic has been used, which allows the paint to be reused after drying on the palette.
They provide a high control of the paint flow, even on fine-grained and smooth watercolour paper. As lightfastness depends not only on the pigment itself, but also on the complete formula, Schmincke not only uses the lightfastness of the pigments themselves, but tests the complete formula of each shade in the rapid Xenontest and/or on the roof of the Schmincke factory over an extended period. This is also done in order to be able to classify the colours strictly according to the 5-star system connected to the "wool scale".
Contains 6 5 ml colours: Cadmium Yellow Deep 226, Cochineal Red 337, Cobalt Blue Light 487, Cobalt Green Pure 535, Raw Umber 667, Sepia Brown Reddish 662. With space for 6 more half-godets. Contains 8 small wells on one side of the lids and 2 large wells on the other.
