Colours Available:

Venetian Red Natural Earth paint chose this vibrant red from a family- owned quarry in Italy for its luminous, rich red colour and mixing quality. Natural Iron Oxide

Orange Ochre This vibrant and warm natural orange pigment comes from a quarry in France. Natural Iron Oxide

Yellow Ochre This beautiful yellow ochre comes from a quarry in France. Natural Iron Oxide

Ultramarine Blue This radiant blue pigment is our only colour that has been fired to get its vibrant colour. It is composed of 90% earthen clay and 10% man-made, non-toxic minerals, and it is heated in an oven to a high temperature. Throughout history, blues in nature were very rare and usually made with precious stones like Lapis Lazuli. These stones are now unsustainably harvested in Afghanistan, so we have found this beautiful, non-toxic and sustainably- made alternative from France.

Black Ochre This earthy black natural ochre comes from a quarry in France. Natural Iron Oxide

Titanium White Rutile This is an opaque white pigment with high opacity, perfect for using alone or lightening other colours. Titanium Dioxide, not to be confused with Titanium Metal (Ti), occurs in nature as the well-known mineral, Rutile, found in metamorphic and igneous rocks. Rutile is the second most abundant mineral sand and is processed to extract the pure white mineral that we use in our paint kits.

Note: Titanium Dioxide is toxic to breathe in large amounts because it contains silica (which is abrasive to the lungs), so please wear a mask when mixing this pigment in dry form.

Ultramarine Purple This pigment is a beautiful and unique bright purple, similar to Dioxazine Purple, that no other combination of pigments can create. Our Ultramarine Purple is a 10% organic, man-made pigment fixed on an earthen clay mineral base from France.

Emerald Green This is a rich, opaque, bright green pigment that is UV resistant and has a powerful tinting strength. It is man made from natural elements.
