Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Artist Watercolor 15ml Tube – 049 Lavender

Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Artist Watercolor, 15 ml tube, shade 049 Lavender.

This new, refined and expanded range now offers 140 shades: 139 vivid, brilliant, high-intensity colors plus ox gall. Of these, 100 are unchanged classic tones, 35 are new shades, and 4 have been laboratory-optimized — all formulated at artist-grade pigmentation. 112 shades in the series offer maximum lightfastness and permanence (4- and 5-star rating). For the most vibrant and efficient mixing results, 95 shades are single-pigment pure colors.

Quality appreciated by artists worldwide: to achieve the highest pigment yield, the watercolor pans are filled with liquid paint in four separate applications, each left to dry fully before the next. This process packs the pan with the highest possible concentration of pure, intense pigment. The gum arabic used as a binder in Horadam watercolors is carefully sourced from only the finest producers. Paint that dries on the palette remains fully reusable. Excellent color flow control is maintained even on the softest watercolor papers. Made to German quality standards. Pans and tubes contain paint of identical quality.

139 different shades are available in full pan, half pan, 5 ml tube, and 15 ml tube formats. To mark the 125th anniversary of Horadam watercolors in 2017, decades of research and development in Schmincke's laboratories culminated in an expanded 140-shade Horadam range, offering both improved quality and greater efficiency to valued artists. New pigment technologies, a commitment to meeting customer demand, and new opportunities in the raw materials market all inspired Schmincke's ongoing work to perfect and expand the Horadam watercolor line.
