New Fra Angelico blue Lapis Lazuli!

Now available in full pan size

We have a new exclusive source for our premium extra fine Lapis lazuli. This pigment is the purest and most expertly extracted Lapis lazuli that we have ever encountered, and we are excited to bring it to you!

All of our Lapis Lazuli watercolors, in both palettes and pans, are now made with this exquisite Fra Angelico blue pigment. This historic color is made by grinding semi-precious lapis lazuli stones into a powder and exacting the purest pigment in small, artisan batches.

Lapis Lazuli is an intense deep blue color made from the semi-precious stone used in historical painting. It is a semi-transparent, medium grained color with moderate tinting strength. Intense, granulating and extra fine.

The stone has been mined for 6,000 years. Ultramarine was the finest and most expensive blue used by Renaissance painters. It was often used for the robes of the Virgin Mary, symbolizing holiness. Artificial ultramarine was invented in 1828.

Made by hand in Assisi, our watercolors are crafted according to a traditional recipe of raw pigments, gum arabic, local honey, rosemary essential oil and a wetting agent. This artisanal process creates a very pigmented and luminous paint that activates beautifully when wet.

Each full and half pan is packaged with a corresponding color card with color details for your reference on the back.

So beautiful!

It's such a vivid color, whether it's a pale wash or a heavy wash, a true joy to paint with. (I love vivid colors!)
