• These watercolours are a highly impressive range which don’t compromise on quality.
• The colours are produced from one pigment only, producing the very cleanest of mixes, colour clarity and brilliance.
• The colours feature a Kodorfan Gum Arabic binder from the Southern Sahara and is unique to this range from Schmincke.
• The Horadam Aquarell Watercolours are tested to comply with the highest quality standards when it comes to stability, fineness, re-solublility, permanence and lightfastness, everything you’d expect from one of the worlds leading brands in colour making.

This would make a truly remarkable gift for a watercolourist with the highest quality standard expectations.

Well constructed from a decent lightweight metal with a matte black enamel external finish. There is a thumb ring at the bottom so you can hold the palette single handed and a closing mechanism that is reliable but not frustrating.

The tin opens to provide lots of mixing surface - 3 wells inside the lid and another 6 spaces on the mixing plate that folds out. Internal finish is white enamel which is ideal for mixing and cleans up well.
